hi,

if this sis a npar you need to add it manually.

it means to add physically the memory inside a cell belongs to the NPAR.

Hi Mikap,

Thanks for reply,

The system is rp8420 and 2 instance of HPUX is installed which are having 2 cell boards each.

Do i need to insert the Dimm in slot and simpally boot the server? or do i need to use any command to get it configured?

Please assist.

Regards
Manoj

Re: memory addition in already created Npar

nPars are *hardware* partitions - they work along cell board boundaries - you can only add memory to a nPar if you add a new cell board, or move a cell board from another nPar. Otherwise you will have to physically add more DIMMs to the cell board that hosts the nPar.

A useful starting point would be to mlook at the partition configuration and the partition you want to add memory to specifically:

parstatus
parstatus -Vp $(parstatus -Mw)

hi,

this operation can't be handled with a command.

its simple HW reconfiguration, just insert 2 GB ram module to the Npar ( cellboards )
