initializing partitions. For example:
P00>>> set console BOTH
7.2.3 Section E.4.3.3 (Configuring Logical Partitions)
The instructions for setting the IO port mask ( lp_io_mask) do not take in
to account a partition with two IOP module. For this case, the lp_io_mask
is formed by combining (logical or) the masks for individual IOP modules
slots. For example, to assign IOP modules in slots 7 and 8 to partition 1,
lp_io_mask1 would be 180.
When assigning IOP modules to secondary partitions, it is important to
remember that one of the IOPs assigned to the partition must be connected to
a DWLPB with a KFE72 option installed. The KFE72 provides the console
serial port for secondary partitions.
7.2.4 Section E.4.3.7 (Disabling Automatic Boot Reset)
The Tru64 UNIX Installation Guide recommends setting the boot_reset
console environment variable to ON. This setting is not compatible with
Logical Partitions. The boot_reset console EV must be set to OFF.
7.2.5 Section E.4.3.8 (Set Memory Interleave Mode)
While setting the interleave mode to none, the console may echo a series of
Y characters to the console display screen (there could be several lines of Y
characters). This is not an error and can be ignored.
7.2.6 Section E.4.4 (Initializing Partitions)
The normal sequence of commands is as follows:
P00>>> set lp_count n
(where n is the number of partitions)
P00>>> init
(initialize the primary partition)
P00>>> lpinit
(start secondary partitions)
P00>>> boot
