Table III.u. Task: -d mem:::base:range

[:base|floating]

Explanation De-assigns an explicit address space of memory

starting at base bytes and extending for

range megabytes. Both quantities are rounded

upward as required to be aligned on a granule

boundary. If rounding is required, the granularity

used is that of the memory type (CLM or ILM)

determined by the speciﬁed base.

Values base: An unsigned 64-bit integer <=

(0x1000000000000000 - appropriate granularity)

range: A positive 64-bit integer <=

(0x100000000000 - granularity)

Usage The vPar can be Up or Down.

Restrictions

The vPar must own the entire range.

Either the start or end point of the

speciﬁed range must match the start or end

point of an existing range.

Usage If the vPar is Down, de-assigning speciﬁc memory

Guidelines ranges does not decrease

the total amount of memory allocated to the vPar.

Caution: It is possible to specify memory ranges

and sizes such that none of the virtual partitions

will launch.

Hewlett-Packard recommends that users conﬁgure

speciﬁc memory ranges only when required for

performance reasons. In other situations, specify

only total memory and allow the monitor to manage

the actual ranges allocated.
