Partition Boundaries

Partition boundaries identify the storage cells, drives, and CAP cells that are part of
each partition. Only unallocated cells can be added to a partition, and only allocated
cells can be removed.
You can define partition boundaries in any of the following ways:
Select individual cells or rectangular groups of cells to add or remove from a
■
partition. Cells or cell groups do not have to be contiguous.
Select an entire module side to add or remove from a partition. Sides do not have to

Select an entire module to add or remove from a partition. Modules do not have to
■
be contiguous.
