Layout 4: Two Virtual Partitions with Workloads Running Simultaneously
Users typically configure multiple virtual partitions, each hosting its own workload, in an
nPartition. Also, the resources assigned to the various virtual partitions in the nPartition can
come from different cells in the nPartition. As a next step we configured two virtual partitions
on this two-cell nPartition. With different virtual partition layouts for each of these virtual
partitions, we ran the workloads in each of the virtual partitions simultaneously.
• 4A – Two virtual partitions / two-cell nPartition (each virtual partition has 8 cores
and 24GB CLM (on the cell with workload’s I/O), 8GB ILM, 100% Base memory,
1024MB granule size)
