Re: cell boards
I think you're combining two entirely separate concepts.
Cells are a hardware architecture that allows for electrical separation of hardware. Each cell will have their own cpus, memory, and (usually) I/O.
The CPUs in the cells would obviously follow the architecture of the entire system be it pa-ris or ia64.

Re: cell boards
might help.
The Cell board is basically the motherboard of a standalone computer system. When processors, memory, I/O, power and cooling are all added and the board is within a chassis, you have a Cell -- which is really just a computing module which knows how to talk over an interconnect (external to the Cell bus) if needed to link with other Cells into a larger computing platform. Hence things like nPartitions where Cells are grouped (or left as singletons) to be used as different physical servers.

Re: cell boards
Cells in HP mid-range servers allow multiple logical grouping of physical h/w (CPU, Memory, etc) using nPar technology. This configuration is initial setup at MSP.

Re: cell boards
Power is not completely isolated.
The VRMs (Voltage Regulator Modules) are NOT isolated between cells. The is from experience with a failed VRMs taking down both cells in an rp7420 ( have experienced it 3 times in last 5 years).

Re: cell boards
More detailed information per cell can be found with "parstatus -c N -V" where you replace N with 0, 1, ... [the numbers are from the first parstatus -C -- that tells you how many cells you have, in how many cabinets and what the numbering is... use that number with the -c (Cell) option to get more details]
