Chapter Review Questions

     
1:

Give at least two reasons why you would choose to employ Virtual Partitions instead of Node Partitions.

2:

Why is it important to make a backup copy of your kernel after installing the Virtual Partition software?

3:

My existing vPar (vpar0) has four CPU. I have a serious CPU performance bottleneck in this vPar. I have analyzed all other vPars, and there is insufficient capacity to reconfigure any existing CPUs to vPar0. I have just purchased four additional CPU for my server/nPar. What steps must I perform in order to make these additional/new CPU available to vPar0?

4:

Why is it important to understand the IO requirements of each application housed in a separate vPar, before designing an overall partition configuration?

5:

It is often said that Virtual Partitions offer isolation from Operating System and application software faults. Surely, if there is a "bug" in HP-UX, it will affect all of my vPars causing all of them to crash.

Give a brief explanation as to why a Virtual Partition can offer isolation from Operating System crashes due to software " bugs ."
