13.15.2 Base or floating memory configuration rules
The following lists some of the base or floating memory configuration rules:
• When an attribute is not specified, the memory defaults to base. Hence, base memory can
be added or deleted without specifying any attribute or by explicitly including the ‘:b’ attribute.
The following lists syntaxes to add base memory:
# vparcreate -p <vpar> -a mem::<amount>[:b] ...
# vparmodify -p <vpar> -a mem::<amount>[:b] ...
Alternatively,
# hpvmcreate -P <vPar_name> -x vm_type=vpar -a mem::<amount>[:b]...
# hpvmmodify -P <vPar_name> -a mem::<amount>[:b]...
• Floating memory requires explicit specification of the attribute ‘:f’ during add or delete. The
following lists syntaxes to add floating memory:
