"Partitioning" on the AS/400 is a different concept than it is on the 
PC.  On current versions of the OS, the closest thing to a "Partition" you 
can get is to have multiple ASP's.  This will physically divide you disk 
units into groups.

In the next version of OS400 there will be "Logical Partitioning" of the 
system, where you can actually divide up the system into logical 
machines.  You need a multi-processor system in order to do this though.

Perhaps you could explain a bit more about what you are trying to do.
