Memory: Allocation Concepts and Notes
• The unit for the specified size of memory for the vPars commands is megabytes; parmodify uses
gigabytes.
• The default memory assigned to a virtual partition is 0 MB, so you need to specify enough memory for
your applications and the operating system.
• Memory is allocated in multiples of 128 MB by default. Memory assignments are also rounded up (to the
next highest granule boundary).
