RE: different OS levels with LPAR

Thanks guys, 
I am looking at this for an i825, so it looks as though a secondary LPAR
on a primary of V5R2 can only be P+1

Neil,

The information you're looking for is here I believe:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r2/ic2924/info/rzajx/rzajxreleas
e
support.htm

They have announced that new hardware with a V5R2 primary will support a
P+1 secondary.  I'm not really sure whether they have the ability to
commit to P+2 or more.  If by "new hardware range" you mean the 810, 825
etc. models, they will not support P-1 in a secondary because the
hardware requires V5R2.

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
