Rob,
If you have done hosted Linux in the past you are 95% of the way
there from an experience standpoint. Remember when you define the SCSI
Client & Server that the disk appear as *CMN resources on the HostING
partition.
I have implemented this, and it is very cool. I wish they would
have PTF'd this back into an earlier release, as it gives people a great way
to test out a new version of the OS. One draw back is that the HostING
partition becomes like a Primary partition to the HostED partition.

Subject: New system with Guested Lpar
Ok, new system. All V6R1. Two i based lpars. One is hosting the other.
The main lpar will be a brand new setup. New system name and everything.
Guested lpar is an old lpar which currently exists only as a full system
save on tape.
Most lpars in the past were pretty much set up by our BP. We're kind of
winging this one. Since disk is shared, etc with guesting. And we have
some experience with guested Linux partitions, IXS cards and iSCSI, is
there any real trick? About the only hardware I can see dedicated might
be a lan port. Maybe I can throw in a 5704 card laying on the shelf to
support tape for the other lpar.
MAIL3 will be the hosting lpar.
GDI will be the guested lpar.

_from_an_HMC_managed_system
GDI is currently running as lpar 10-C2091. We have completed a full
system save and fully expect to initialize the system from scratch.
