Subject: Re: IMPL of P0 partition
And, are you ready for the big lie? When you go to an i5 (520, etc)
there will be no controlling partition. It's all done with a FSP
(Flexible Service Processor) controlled by a HMC (Hardware Management
Console).
However, when you put on a firmware upgrade on to the FSP you still have
to IPL the FSP will which, in turn, require you to drop all the
partitions. Same stuff, different day. Even if you have redundant
FSPs.
