Re: Recommendations for Low End IBMi that Supports Multiple LPARS

Thanks but I'm out of iDevCloud now. It's Larry and Pete that have it all.

How much storage do you need? How many users?

I'm guessing a POWER 720, 8202-E4C four way might do the trick, and since it's a P05 box the software is not too extreme. The big downside,
no expansion chassis on the 4 way. You would also use either VIOS or
IBM i to host the secondary partitions. A 720 six way gets you
multiple chassis (lots of storage) and such, but it's also a P10 box so the IBM i licenses get a bit more.

Cloud based solution maybe? I hear there are a couple of guys on the list that might have a great solution for you.
