partitioning

I have an rp7420 with 16GB RAM and 6 processors. I would like to have two partitions, one with two CPU and another with four.

Pls advice, do I need any special sofware?

Thanks

Re: partitioning

Shalom,

Yes, you need vpar/npar software

Search for virtualization.

Pick your poison.

Re: partitioning

If you want to go with vPars, you need virtual partition software.

But if you want to do nPars, nothing special is needed - it's just built-in.

See

Hope this helps!

Torsten.
