Re: activation on second npar on intregrity

Based on the information you provided everyone can only suggest this:

Do the appropriate steps to make it!

How about posting some more information like the parstatus etc.

Hope this helps!

Re: activation on second npar on intregrity

Looks like you already have to active partitions. Where exactly is the problem?

Hope this helps!

Re: activation on second npar on intregrity

the problem is interpretation

i have two active npars in the server npar0 and npar1
npar 0 is in the server cabinet
npar1 is in the expansion cabinet

question are each of the cabinets capabile of holding 2 npars thus giving me a total of 4 npars per server?

No and no no no!

There is only I/O in the expansion box - not a single CPU nor any byte of memory.

The CPUs and memory are in the main cabinet.

Look at this:

cab0,cell0 Active Core 8/0/8 32.0/0.0 cab0,bay0,chassis0 yes yes 0
cab0,cell1 Active Core 8/0/8 32.0/0.0 cab0,bay0,chassis1 yes yes 1
cab0,cell2 Active Base 8/0/8 32.0/0.0 cab8,bay0,chassis0 yes yes 1
cab0,cell3 Active Base 8/0/8 32.0/0.0 cab8,bay0,chassis1 yes yes 0


Each partition has some I/O in the main cabinet, some in the expansion.



Again, where is the problem?

Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.
