Addition of hardware resource
Operation to add a system board to a physical partition without stopping the logical domains on the physical partition to deal with the business expansion of system load increase.
It is necessary to set the CPU core activation as necessary.
Reduction of hardware resource
Operation to delete a system board from a physical partition without stopping the running operation to utilize the hardware resource effectively by the change of the operation volume.
Move of hardware resource
Operation to delete a system board in the other physical partition temporarily, and then add the once deleted system board to the physical partition where hardware resource needs to be added. This operation is to deal with the business expansion of system load increase. The hardware resource can be moved while logical domains on two physical partitions are operating. It is a flexible system construction for the system load fluctuation.
Hot swap when parts fail
Hot swap (*) of a system board for replacing a failed I/O device, memory, or CPU
(*) When the system board deleted once is added again, the types of I/O controller and device, and the location of the implemented slot must be the same as before it was deleted.
Note
When adding or deleting I/O resources to/from the existing domain physically, you need to reboot the following domains where the I/O resources are changed: the control domain, I/O root domain, and I/O domain.
