Memory: Concepts and Functionality
Definitions for Assigning (Adding) Or Deleting ILM or CLM Memory
Physical memory can be divided into two categories: ILM and CLM.
ILM Interleaved Memory, where memory consists of blocks of memory from one or more cells
of the nPartition.
CLM Cell Local Memory, where memory consists of blocks of memory from only a specific cell
of the nPartition.
You can assign memory to a virtual partition by any of the following methods:
• By size.
This uses the nPartition’s ILM. The basic syntax for this is:
-a|d mem::size
◦
◦ For more information, see “Memory: Assigning (Adding) or Deleting by Size (ILM)”
(page 180).
• By cell and a corresponding size.
