F Supported Configurations for Memory
Migration
HP-UX 11i v3 (11.31) supports dynamic memory migration in conjunction with vPars. To optimize runtime
performance as well as memory migration performance, system administrators configure the amount of
memory that is available for critical system needs and the amount of memory that may be deleted without a
reboot.
In order to assure system performance and to ensure that adequate memory is available for critical system
needs, a minimum amount of base memory is required for vPars.
The supported memory configurations for base memory with HP-UX 11i v3 (11.31) are as follows:
Table F-1 Minimum Base Memory Requirements
