ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a multiprocessor computer system comprises at least a first partition having a first operating system comprising logic to initiate a request to add a first cell to the first partition, open a communication interface between the first operating system and a firmware module on the first cell, and transmit from the first partition to the first cell a compatibility command, logic in the first cell to determine whether the first cell is compatible with the first partition, and logic in the first partition to add the first cell to the first partition in response to a determination that the first cell is compatible with the first partition.
