IIRC Guesting of IBM i OS is only supported on the POWER6 Blades....

Interesting discussion! I have a 5 year-old 550 with Production and
Test LPAR's. Given our small user base (never > 30 on at once), it
seems reasonable to move this into a 520 stocked with six large disk
drives and have the Production LPAR own all resources with Test riding
along as a guest. Does this sound reasonable? I would LOVE to avoid
any expansion towers...

Been there, done that. Works fine.
If you are still all V5R4 then you're obviously not doing any "guest"
partitioning so you don't have to worry about that. Guesting came out
in
V6R1 and only on power 6 hardware.

I have 570 MMA system with 3 LPARS. It is my understanding that I can
run
multiple versions of the OS on this system.
Example 2 LPARS running V5R4 while the third LPAR is running v6R1. I
would
like to test V6R1 in a test mode before converting the other partitions.
Thanks
