[Linuxppc-users] Total I/O Memeory Entitlement vs Online Memory?

Hi all,

I got a question from a customer, perhaps somebody can answer that:

In a SLES Linux LPAR (for SAP HANA) with 4 TB the customer sees with the
lparstat command:

Online Memory : 4277701632 kB --> /1024 /1024 = ~4079 GB

Total I/O Memory Entitlement: 4398046511104 /1024 /1024 /1024 = 4096 GB

--> Difference ~17 GB

The question is, why is there a difference? What are the 17 GB used for? As
far as I understood, this is no Hypervisor memory, as this memory is inside
the LPAR ...

Thank you.




Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards

Stephen Lutz
