As the foundation for HP's Virtual Server Environment, HP nPartition servers are a crucial building block in a data center. This chapter has covered the basic hardware in HP nPartition servers including complexes, cabinets, cells, and I/O chassis. The nPartition Management paradigms were discussed to provide an in-depth understanding of the powerful management options available for HP nPartition servers. Finally, an example scenario was covered to illustrate the process of modifying nPartitions and creating new nPartitions.
