The default memory assigned
to a virtual partition is 0 MB, so you need to specify enough memory
for your applications and the operating system. While there is no
specific minimum base memory requirement per vpar, the HPUX kernel
does require a certain amount of base memory to boot successfully.
For this reason, we currently recommend that 1 GB of base memory is
assigned per vpar. The more base memory a virtual partition has, the
better the performance will be. This is especially true of applications
that require large amounts of locked memory. See the Installation
and Update Guide for your OS and the nPartition
Administrator’s Guide for your server.
