Have you initiated a memory remove operation from the HMC? That's the only way to catch some bugs... I'm wondering how the memory hot un-plug is initiated on the pseries. Could you tell me about this HMC? Is it an application running in the lpar, or is it an external entity? Is there a 'standard' interface from userspace that can be used to trigger the hot-unplug sequence? I'm asking because PS3's lv1 hypervisor supports hot un-plug of memory, but it would need to be triggered from some kind of management application running in in userspace. -Geoff ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
