Your understanding is somewhat correct. Let me explain for more here. Taking
PHB3 as an example: it has 16 M64 BARs. The last BAR (15th) is running in
share mode. When one segment from this BAR is assigned to one PE, the PE number
is determined and that's equal to the segment number. However, it's still possible
one PE has multiple segments. We have "master" and "slave" PEs for the later case.

If any one left BARs (0 to 14) is running in single mode and assigned to one particular
PE. the PE number can be confiugred.
