1 Dynamic memory migration requires the firmware revisions indicated in the HP-UX Virtual Partitions Ordering and
Configuration Guide.
2 In order to work in a vPars environment, hyperthreading requires the firmware revisions indicated in the HP-UX
Virtual Partitions Ordering and Configuration Guide.
Resource Migration and Required States
The table below shows whether a resource is dynamically migratable; in other words, for each
given resource type and vPars version, the intersecting box shows whether the target virtual
partition must be up or down to migrate the resource.
Table 2-3 To Migrate the Resource, the Target Virtual Partition State must be...

The table below shows the same information, but from the perspective of dynamic migration (in
other words, online migration):
