It really isn't as scary as it sounds. I've been IBM i since 1986 and I've learned lots about VIOS in the last year because we use it quite a bit here.

At some time we'll be playing with VIOS. Everyone's warning me that I'm really going to start complicating the system but I get the impression that VIOS is the wave of the future for disk on Power hardware.

Hi, Rob:

That would be some kind of "Virtual SCSI" disk, right?

So Domino is running in an LPAR ...

But, is this LPAR hosted by IBM i, or by VIOS?
