Create a Default Partition

You can create a cluster-wide default partition by running an initialization script named part_initialize on any node in the cluster. This will create a single partition named all, which will include all the nodes in the cluster as members.

Then, run mpinfo -N again to verify the successful creation of all. See Example 2-2 for an example of mpinfo -N output when the all partition is present.
