Re: Guest Partition Storage Configuration

The reason is to provide IBM i with arms to manage. Creating one
storage space would be the same as giving an IBM i instance only one
disk drive. Bad plan from an I/O performance stand point. The
architecture just works better when it's allowed to do what it is
designed to do.

Jim, curious, I never heard of having a storage space only based on

35GB??,

could you elaborate on this part. If I need 150GB of space I would just
create 1 storage space.
