Hi,

With the announcement of the new systems and the way they are packaged, is there a way of configuring the following? Or may it just be considered a 'nice-to-have'?

The Standard Edition comes with zero interactive (but enough to run a console)
The Enterprise Edition, on certain models, comes with dormant processors for CUoD.

It would be quite nifty to be able to purchase a machine for high-availability with a product such as *noMAX (or MIMIX, Vision or Data Mirror). This would be a Standard Edition machine. The replication occurs in batch.

The system will have been configured with sufficient interactive processors, which will also be dormant. These will then be activated in the case of a disaster, as this will be when you require interactive power on the DR system, serving as CUoD processors.

Is there a place for such an animal? Am I explaining myself correctly? As far as I can see, IBM should not lose: they will move some more machines and have the maintenance on these in any case.

What do the genii think?

Cheers.

Jan.
