When the nPartition boots, the firmware requires between 8 to 64 MB of each cell (therefore, using CLM). The exact amount depends on the specific server and the firmware. PA firmware requires approximately 8-16 MB of each cell, and Integrity firmware requires approximately 16-64 MB of each cell. For exact amounts, see the firmware documentation for your hardware. This per-cell firmware memory requirement is necessary for running the nPartition. It is not a consequence of running vPars.

If our example system has 2 cells and the firmware requires 64 MB per cell, 128 MB (64 MB x 2 cells = 128) of the total cell local memory could be used by the nPartition firmware.
