I've been looking over the i5 LPAR redbook and have some questions about
resource allocation to a partition.

It looks like memory can be allocated in 16Mb chunks (LMB) and adjusted as
needed.

Disk however appears to assigned at the physical drive level. Can drives in
a RAID set  be assigned to different partitions ?  Or does a whole RAID set
or IOP need to be assigned to a partition ?

My interest is in configuring a small partition for test purposes.

tia,
Keith
