Re: LPAR on very small machines

Even though the sales manual says a small 520

is it really possible to do it on a small machine?

        YES

The HMC looks to be a "requirement" in the I5
series, but what would other boxes use instead of
that to control partitions ???
If it has either on demand or LPAR HMC is required for i5. Other system models[ non i5 ]us a Primary partition instead

I have a customer that wants to keep a copy of
V4R5 in a partition and run V5R3 as the primary.
Is that even possible ???

        No  to big a span. General  rule  is  +/-  a  release

Other than the concept, I know little if anything about
LPAR.
