Well I just got off the phone with TAATOOL and I am so confused.





We have a 570-7474 (P40) with 6 partitions. 4 are V5R4 and 2 are V5R3.



Direct from their web site I Quote "LPAR systems are considered a single system, (no extra charge per partition). No DSLO offering exists." And this statement is somewhat correct.

Here is their new license table.

If I go with the V5R4 and P40 it should cost me 7700.00 USD but it will not work with the two partions running V5R3. The sales person said I should by the V5R3 version for 6900.00 USD for the V5R3 version and then pay 2100.00 USD to upgrade the other partitions to V5R4 of TAATOOL which the price is now 9000.00 USD. I explain that this is a new license and since I was going to purchase the V5R4 version why should I pay the 2100.00 USD for the down version when the new license difference is only 800.00 USD between V5R4 and V5R3.



His answer was that the way it is.



Are their other tools that would give me similar information ast the PRTLIBANL of TAATOOL.



Thanks
