Base Module

2.1.Partition Function

The base module has the partition function which enables the system to operate as if multiple units are present on one unit.

The system is capable of partitioning in units of the cell or I/O module within the same base module. For example, in a system consisting of two cells and two I/O modules, partitioning shown in the figure below is possible.

Note that each partition should contain at least one cell card and one I/O module (including the core module).

The partition structure in the base module can be changed with the “hc” command of the SP command. (For details of the SP command, see 2.4.6 SP Command Reference.)

See 2.2.6 Power Bay for the location of the AC switch on the base module and expansion power bay. The number of switches on the switch panel depends on the number of installed base modules and expansion power bays. Take care of the association between these switches and base modules and expansion power bays during switch operation. The switches on the switch panel are used for immediate power shutdown for emergency purposes. When a switch on this panel is turned off, data may be destroyed Operation Procedure 3.2.2.
