Guidelines for Configuring Virtual Partitions on Cellular Platforms

Overview The HP-UX virtual Partitions (vPars) solution is one of the popular choices available to customers who are considering workload consolidation on nPartitions (hard partitions on cellular HP platforms). The vPars solution provides users with configuration flexibility and negligible performance overhead. It is however important from a performance perspective to understand and account for the localities of the resources assigned to virtual partitions hosted on cellular platforms. The paper provides some guidelines for configuring virtual partitions to achieve good workload performance on cellular platforms where an nPartition's resources span multiple cells. This paper also illustrates the influence of resource localities on workload performance by using results from a focused study.
