HP-UX SCA Process and Memory Management
(new)
For compatibility reasons, the HP-UX 11i release supports the Scalable
Computing Architecture (SCA) programming, process management, and
memory management features that were introduced at HP-UX 11.10 for
the HP V-Class SCA servers. However, these features do not provide any
potential performance benefits and no previous HP-UX SCA features
have changed.
NOTE HP V-Class SCA servers are not supported by the HP-UX 11i release,
and all 11i supported systems are non-SCA servers that consist of a
single “locality domain” that includes all of the system’s hardware
resources. As a result, any use of the HP-UX SCA features on HP-UX 11i
systems will result in the default process placement and memory
allocation behaviors.
