Powering Up NovaScale 5xx5 Partitioned Server Domains
According to version, NovaScale 5xx5 Partitioned Servers are designed to operate as up to
eight hardware-independent SMP systems, or domains.
For easy configuration and optimum use of the physical and logical resources required for
simultaneous operation, domains are defined via the
PAM Domain Scheme
wizard. For
further details about domain configuration, see Configuring Domains , in the User's Guide .
The server is delivered with a default scheme, or configuration file, called
MyOperationsScheme-xx , containing up to eight domains:
•
MyOperations-xx-1
•
MyOperations-xx-2
•
MyOperations-xx-3
•
MyOperations-xx-4
•
MyOperations-xx-5
•
MyOperations-xx6
•
MyOperations-xx7
•
MyOperations-xx-8
This default scheme allows you to simultaneously boot all domains.
According to Customer requirements, identical or different Operating System instances may
be pre-installed on each domain boot disk (EFI LUN).
