RX7640 Add 1 Cell

Hello,
We have RX7640 Server with 1 Cell configured.

What parts are needed to install a second cell. (nPar)

I think we need these RX7640 Parts
1) 1 Cell Board with CPU and RAM
2) MP Core IO Card
3) 2 NIC Cards
4) 2 HBAs
5) 2 Hard Disks

Is this corrct?

does this change if we go for vPar.

You need a cell with CPU and RAM, right.

If you want to add the cell to the nPar, you don't really need another MP, but better to have one (more I/O resources).

Each vPar needs some HBAs (network, etc) and own boot disks.

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
