Application requirement for Shutdown mode
The application requirements for Shutdown mode are described in this
subsection.
Requirement of LPAR to migrate
LPAR name
The following requirements must be fulfilled.
– LPAR Name is not "NO_NAME".
–
No LPARs with the same name exist on the destination server blade.
Resources assigned to LPAR
The following requirements shown in the following table must be fulfilled.
Table 2-10 Requirements of resources assigned to LPAR
Item Requirement
CPU No requirements
1
Memory No limitation on memory size assigned to LPAR 2
Device NIC

Only NIC ports in shared mode and VF NICs
4
are assigned.
FC HBA Only FC HBA ports in shared mode are assigned.
Notes:
1. When an LPAR to which processors with a specified physical processor number in dedicated mode
are assigned migrates, the processors with the same physical numbers may not be assigned to
the LPAR on the destination server blade. However, the same number of processors assigned to
the LPAR on the source server blade is assigned on destination server blade.
2. The LPAR to migrate might not be activated on the destination server blade because of memory
fragmentation. In this case, the message "The MMS could not activate the LPAR due to memory
fragmentation." is shown though the LPAR is migrated. When you see this message, see "LPAR
Memory Fragmentation" in Hitachi Compute Blade 2000 USER'S GUIDE , Hitachi Compute Blade
320 USER'S GUIDE or Hitachi Compute Blade 500 Series Logical partitioning manager User's
Guide .
3. A migration might fail due to setting of shared NIC segments. For the detail, see "Note on
assigning NIC ports" in “Application requirements for Shutdown mode” in "Usage environments".
4. When an LPAR to which VF NICs are assigned migrates, specify a server blade where an HVM
firmware version supporting VF NICs is installed as the destination server blade.
