In the navigation pane, click Manage Partition(s) under Scalable Partitioning.Use the Scalable Complex Management page to create, delete, control, and viewscalable partitions. Select the primary node; then, automatically or manuallycreate a scalable partition:v Click Auto under Partition Configure to automatically create a singlepartition that uses all nodes in the multi-node configuration.v Click Create under Partition Configure to manually assign nodes to thepartition.Note: Click Redraw to reorder the sequence in which the nodes appear in thediagram on the page. For example, you can reorder the diagram to reflect theorder in which the nodes are installed in a rack. The nodes are reordered accordingto the QPI or EXA cabling, with the node that you select in the top position.Configuring a QPI muliti-node systemA multi-node configuration interconnects multiple servers or multiple partitions.This configuration requires 8 microprocessors and sixteen memory cards (4microprocessors and 8 memory cards per node). See the documentation that camewith your QPI cables to set up your QPI multi-node configuration.Before you create scalable partitions, read the following information:v Make sure that all the nodes in the multi-node configuration contain thefollowing software and hardware:– The current level of UEFI code, SAS UEFI code, IMM firmware, and FPGAfirmwareNote: To check for the latest firmware levels and to download firmwareupdates, go to http://www.ibm.com/systems/support/.– Microprocessors that are the same cache size and type, and the same clockspeed.112 IBM System x3850 X5 and x3950 X5 Types 7145, 7146, 7143, and 7191: Installation and User's Guide
