Re: Reconfigure Superdome

Yes Torsten,

I got I/O chasis confused with cells.

8 Cells per cabinet 16 in a two Cabinet superdome, making the configuration possible if necessary I/O chasis are present.

Which is impossible to know without a parstatus command.

Re: Reconfigure Superdome

SD32A is the sx1000 based superdome.

So go ahead and shutdown npar3, delete it, add the cell to the partitions and do a reconfig reboot.

Think about if the I/O belongs to the partition where you need it.

@SEP: The cabinet has 4 I/O chassis, but you can have a cabinet 8 or 9 for additional I/O, so finally you can have 16 cells and 16 I/O chassis.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

Re: Reconfigure Superdome

I believe what Torsten mean is to load balance the IO as needed per partition

Re: Reconfigure Superdome

Hi,

Torsten do you know if the nifty 54-diagram applies to sx1000 and sx2000 superdomes??

or does it only apply to the legacy superdomes?

Thnx!.
Windows?, no thanks
