That would be much easier and economical if the software was licensed by

Which software do you mean? IBM i OS is licensed based on processor
group and number of cores. If you have Power6 hardware and run V6R1,
you can easily spin up a guested LPAR (which must bei V6R1 too).

Interestingly, when we purchased three new entry-level Power 6 boxes,
we first thought about being a four-core machine and partition it.
Turns out, buying three boxes is cheaper than a big one that you slice
into pieces.
