but I still don't get it: is my calculation correct or do I have to know 

something
miraculous to get the numbers I need ?
In other words, I can't divide that single POWER5 processor like I 
thought ?
What is the math behind that ?
The Redbook for VPM only talks about a 2 CPU system and gives 1 CPU
to a secondary partition with Linux, allowing the first LPAR with i5-OS 
to get
the whole processor power of 2 CPUs when running in uncapped mode.
I can't even go to uncapped mode, because my system is "not able" to !

Sigh,
Philipp

Hello Philipp,

You can divide a Power5/5+ processor in tenths som the smallest partition 
will have 0.1 processor
A "whole" Power5/5+ processor is roughly 3000-3800CPW.
Some of the smaller i5 520 does not have one processor capacity - in your 
case just 0.32 processor.
According to your own formula that will give you the posibillity to create 
three partitions.
Makes sense?
