Symptoms:
	PHCO_27758:
	( SR:8606235122 CR:JAGae04301 )
	The partition management utilities could not identify
	the GSP if it was located in the IOX cabinet on an rp8400.

	( SR:8606197772 CR:JAGad66963 )
	No partition management support for the rp7420, rp8420
	and Superdome systems with pa8800 processors

	PHCO_23510:
	( SR:8606170617 CR:JAGad39881 )
	Parstatus and Parmgr cannot parse GSP physical locations
	into Cabinet number and Core I/O.

	( SR:8606181005 CR:JAGad50225 )
	User cannot see DIMM label information through parstatus
	or Parmgr utilities.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_27758:
	( SR:8606235122 CR:JAGae04301 )
	The library function hdc_parse_gsp_loc() did not comprehend
	a GSP located in an IOX cabinet on an rp8400.

	Resolution:
	Expanded cabinet type check in hdc_parse_gsp_loc() to
	understand the rp8400  IOX cabinet.

	( SR:8606197772 CR:JAGad66963 )
	The partition management commands did not understand more
	than 4 cpus/cell or any of the new platform DIMM labeling.

	Resolution:
	Added support for up to 16 CPUs/cell and the new platform
	DIMM labeling.

	PHCO_23510:
	( SR:8606170617 CR:JAGad39881 )
	The ability for HDCI to parse GSP physical locations was
	documented in the man pages, but not implemented in the
	shared library.

	Resolution:
	A function was added to the HDCI shared library which can
	parse the GSP physical location information into Cabinet
	number and Core I/O number.

	( SR:8606181005 CR:JAGad50225 )
	System firmware did not supply an interface to pass DIMM
	label information for all cells on a system.

	Resolution:
	Added a function to the shared library to pass DIMM label
	information based upon known architected cell information
	while supporting a future firmware interface for DIMM
	labels for any cell in the system.

Enhancement:
	No
