RE: Saving the System i: Fight Rather Than Switch

I thought uptime was expressed in terms of "unplanned outages". Since
the monthly IPL can be scheduled and users notified in advance, you have
no unplanned downtime (for the IPL).

Uptime and availability are different requirements.

Even if your IPL process takes an hour, that's nearly 99.9% uptime.


Wow! The iSeries is capable of 99.86% uptime??? Impressive... <G>
