Migrating From HP-UX 11i V1 Virtual Partitions to a Mixed HP-UX Version Environment

Overview Virtual Partitions (vPars) is a software solution available on HP 9000 and HP Integrity cell-based servers running HP-UX 11i. It allows a system administrator to "carve up" a single nPartition (hardware partition) into multiple independent entities, each owning processors, memory, and I/O resources. This is accomplished through a software layer called the vPars monitor which resides between the operating system kernel and the firmware. The vPars monitor controls the ownership of the processors, memory, and I/O resources on the system. Each virtual partition must have its own copy of the operating system, thereby providing namespace and software fault isolation.
