Alternate processor definitions

The physical machine may have multiple logical processors known as shadows. The primary processor in the processor complex is that which is in the current logical view; at IODF load/resync time, processor complex connections are built for primary processors only. Alternate or shadow processors are those processors that are not in the current view; no physical connections are built for alternate processors at IODF load/resync time. Every processor must be assigned to a new or existing processor complex. The name of the processor complex is the name of the primary processor.

You can:
  • Create or delete shadow processors during an HCM session
  • Confirm or change which processors are assigned to which machine during an IODF load or resync process.
