Task: -a mem:::base
:range
Explanation Specifies 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 64 megabyte
boundaries.
Values Base: An unsigned 64-bit integer <= 0xfffffffffc000000
Range: A positive 64-bit integer <= 17592186044352
Usage The vPar must not be running.
Restrictions
No part of the range may be already owned by this
or another vPar.
If the vPar is in the monitor database, the entire
range must exist in the system.
The total memory allocated in specific ranges must
not exceed the vPar’s memory size specification.
Usage Addition of specific memory ranges does not increase
Guidelines the total amount of memory allocated to the vPar.
Any such memory is a part of that total amount.
Caution: It is possible to specify memory ranges
and sizes such that none of the vPars 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.
