Step 1b - Requirements for Partitions
A single AlphaServer GS1280 can be divided into logical hardware partitions as small as two processors, each running an
instance of Tru64 UNIX or an instance of OpenVMS. Each partition is allocated its own dedicated "shared-nothing" set of
hardware resources: CPU module(s), memory module(s), and I/O. Each hardware partition is viewed as a unique node, from
a system point-of-view, with its own instance of Tru64 UNIX or OpenVMS operating system and application software,
independent system console, and error log.
