7.3 Configuring Partitioned GS80, GS160, or GS320

Systems in a TruCluster Configuration

An AlphaServer GS80/160/320 system can be a member of a TruCluster
Server configuration. Alternatively, any AlphaServer GS80/160/320 hard
partition can participate as a member system, provided that the partition
meets the hardware requirements that Section 7.2 describes.

The following section covers configuring a single partition AlphaServer
GS80/160/320 system as multiple hard partitions in a TruCluster Server
configuration. The description covers the case of a newly installed
system that is to be used as two member systems in a TruCluster Server
configuration.

7.3.1 Repartitioning a Single-Partition AlphaServer GS80/160/320

as Two Partitions in a Cluster

The information in this section assumes that this is a new AlphaServer
GS80/160/320 system with hardware installed, the system management
console is connected for the first partition, a terminal emulator window
is open for the first partition, and that the system has been powered up
and tested as a single partition. Also, this section assumes that you have
determined which QBBs to use in each partition. Although the procedure
specifies two hard partitions, the maximum for a GS80 system, it will work
