• Do you want to change the failure usage for any of the cells in the
partition?
• Do you want to change which cells will be used by the partition the
next time it is booted?
All of these things can be set from the Modify Partition window
before you proceed. For help in changing any of these items, see “Setting
and Checking a Partition’s Core Cell Choices” on page 185.
Step 7. When you have completed any changes you want to make in the settings
for the cells in this partition, click on the OK button to complete the
partition modification.
A confirmation window will confirm that you have successfully (almost)
added the cells. See the next step for important information.
Step 8. As soon as possible reboot the partition using the special
reboot-for-reconfiguration option:
NOTE Your changes will not take effect until you reboot the partition with the
special reboot-for-reconfiguration option.
It is not necessary (when adding a cell to a partition) to immediately
reboot, but the complex profile will be locked, preventing further changes
until this special reboot occurs. For more information on rebooting a
partition for reconfiguration, see “Performing a Reboot-for-Reconfig for a
Partition” on page 263.
