Table 8-6 Configuration of Complex2 post core migration

Partition	Total Cores	Total Active Cores
nPar3	16	10
nPar4	8	5

IMPORTANT: The sum of total number of active cores in the complexes involved in core migration must not change at the end of this operation. In the above example, the sum of the total active cores in the complexes is 40 (22 in complex1 and 18 in complex2). It must remain same after the core migration.
