mem add in vpar

nodeA:/#vparmodify -p vpar1 -a mem::2048:floating <
vparmodify: Note: Please ensure that sufficient base memory has been configured
to enable the vPar to boot.
vparmodify: Error: "-a mem::2048:floating": Request exceeds available base or floating ILM.

any why do i get this error while i hv enough memory in this npar as below


[Available CLM (CellID MB)]: 0 1978

Because you didn't specify the Cell. With no cell argument, that memory has to be Interleaved memory (hence the "exceeds available Base or Floating ILM" error).

vparmodify -p vpar1 -a cell:0:mem::768:f -a cell:1:mem::768:f -a cell:2:mem::768:f

would be close to what you're trying to do (that would give 2304 but 2048/3 doesn't round well), balancing out the memory from across the Cells. If all the cpus in the vPar come from a single Cell, though -- you should add the memory from just that Cell to get the best latency. (There's not enough for any one cell to satisfy 2048, so there's a tradeoff there if you can't pull memory from another vPar to give to this one).
