APW may show these warnings when validating the partition map.

Warning: Some duos are unassigned.
Assign all duos to a hard partition to resolve this problem. The AlphaServer platform will still work even if the duos are left unassigned.
Warning: Partition name is not valid in the mesh.
To resolve this problem, start the Resources dialog box, and modify the partition. Add and remove duos until the partition looks like a rectangle in the Resources dialog box.
Warning: Partition name needs more CPUs, Memory, or I/O.
Be sure the duo assigned is not a filler module or an empty slot. Assign additional duos to the hard partition to resolve this problem. Usually, the partition needs I/O, because every populated duo has both CPUs and memory. Look for a duo that has a connection to an I/O Drawer, or adjust the I/O cabling and ignore the error within APW. Power-off the affected partition before moving I/O cables.
Warning: Some duos within partition name are unassigned.
Assign all duos within the hard partition to a soft partition to resolve this problem. The AlphaServer platform will still work even if the duos are left unassigned.
Warning: Soft partition spname in partition hpname needs more CPUs, memory, or I/O.
Be sure the duo assigned is not a filler module or an empty slot. Assign additional duos to the soft partition to resolve this problem. Usually, the partition needs I/O, because every populated duo has both CPUs and memory. Look for a duo that has a connection to an I/O drawer, or adjust the I/O cabling and ignore the error within APW. Power-off the affected partition before moving I/O cables.
Warning: Some QBBs are unassigned.
Assign all QBBs to a hard partition to resolve this problem. The AlphaServer platform will still work even if the QBBs are left unassigned.
Warning: Partition name needs more CPUs, Memory, or I/O.
Assign additional QBBs to the hard partition to resolve this problem. Usually, the partition needs I/O, because every populated QBB has both CPUs and Memory. Look for a QBB that has a connection to an I/O Drawer, or adjust the I/O cabling and ignore the error within APW. Power-off the affected partition before moving I/O cables.
Warning: Some QBBs within partition name are unassigned.
Assign all QBBs within the hard partition to a soft partition to resolve this problem. The AlphaServer platform will still work even if the QBBs are left unassigned.
Warning: Soft partition spname in partition hpname needs more CPUs, memory, or I/O.
Assign additional QBBs to the soft partition to resolve this problem. Usually, the partition needs I/O, because every populated QBB has both CPUs and memory.
