vPar memory

MárcioAFM — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 17:42:24 GMT

Hello,

I have create a vPar with 8192MB of memory, but now (maybe my error) it appear with 3583MB. The value for granularity is 512MB

I think i have to do a vparmodify, but i don't know if i add all the memory (8192MB) or if i have to add the difference between 8192 and 3583.

Thank you

Best Regards,

Márcio

You need to *add* the memory, example:

# vparmodify -p vpar1 -a mem::1024

This will *add* 1 GB to vpar1 (vpar must be down!)

Hello,

what do you mean by "add" is this:

8192-3583 = 4069MB

I need to do this:

vparcreate -p vPar2 -a mem::4069

or

vparcreate -p vPar2 -a mem::8192

Thanks,

MÃ¡rcio

vparmodify -p vPar2 -a mem::4069

modify! - not create!

Firstly I would want to try to find out WHY the memory appears so vastly different.
Only then try to vparmodify ( as Torsten says, NOT vparcreate) the memory assigned.
Try using vparstatus -A to see what resources are left available to be used in any vpar.
