You can determine whether the destination server has enough
physical memory available to support the mobile partition and then
make more physical memory available, if necessary, by using the Hardware Management Console (HMC).
You must be a super administrator to perform this task.
The HMC Classic interface is
not supported in Hardware Management Console (HMC) Version 8.7.0, or later. The functions that were previously
available in the HMC Classic interface are now available in
the HMC Enhanced+ interface.
For more information about changing the memory settings when the HMC is at version 8.7.0, or later, see Changing memory
settings.
To determine
whether the destination server has enough physical memory available to support the mobile partition,
complete the following steps from the
HMC:
- Identify the amount of
physical memory that the mobile partition requires:
- In the navigation pane, expand .
- Click the source server on which the mobile partition
is located.
- In the work pane, select the mobile partition.
- From the Tasks menu, click Properties. The Partition Properties window is displayed.
- Click the Hardware tab.
- Click the Memory tab.
- Record the dedicated minimum, assigned, and maximum
memory settings.
- Click OK.
- Identify the amount of
physical memory that is available on the destination server:
- In the navigation pane, expand Systems Management and
click Servers.
- In the work pane, select the destination server to which
you plan to migrate the mobile partition.
- From the Tasks menu, click Properties.
- Click the Memory tab.
- Record the Current memory available for partition
usage.
- Click OK.
- Compare the values from steps 1 and 2. If the destination server does not have
enough physical memory available to support the mobile partition,
you can add more available physical memory to the destination server
by performing one or more of the following tasks:
