maxcpus=0
Linux boot-time kernel parameter. A command-line option of nosmp or maxcpus=0 will disable SMP activation entirely; maxcpus=N limits the maximum number of CPUs activated in SMP mode to N. See bootparam(7).

Additional Notes on partitions and local memory:
The HP Integrity rx7640, rx8640, and Superdome systems may be configured as one large system or as multiple independent smaller systems via hard parititions (nPars). Each hard partition consists of one or more cells with their associated processors, memory, and I/O chassis, and is isolated from events in other partitions. The memory within a partition can either be assigned to local memory pools for each cell, or assigned to an interleaved pool that is distributed by cache line across the cells. Partitions and their attributes can be created and modified via the support management station, or via the nPartition (par*) commands running on an os instance in a system partition.
