PowerVM Types
• PowerVM inherits nearly all the APV (Advanced Power Virtualization)
concepts from Power 5 based systems. It uses the same VIOS software and
options as the previous APV.
• PowerVM is Power 6 specific only in that it enables features available
exclusively on Power 6 based systems (ie: Multiple shared processor pools
and partition mobility are not available on Power 5 systems.)
• PowerVM (and its APV predecessor) are optional licenses / activation
codes that are ordered for a server. Each is licensed by CPU.
• PowerVM, unlike its APV predecessor, comes in several different versions.
Each is tiered for price and features. Each of these versions is documented
in the table on the right.
• PowerVM activation codes can be checked from the HMC, IVM, or from IBM
records at this URL:
http://www-912.ibm.com/pod/pod. The activation codes
on the IBM web site will show up as type "VET" codes.
