Impact

This release includes support for online activation of cells.

The Activate Cell Online action enables you to integrate an inactive cell into an nPartition without rebooting the nPartition. The cell being activated must already be assigned to the nPartition. After the online activation, the cell is active and its resources are integrated to make them available to the OS running on the nPartition.

Online cell operations are supported only on servers based on the HP sx1000 or sx2000 chipset. The cell being activated must be assigned to an nPartition running HP-UX 11i v3.

Compatibility

There are no known compatibility issues.

Performance
