Re: LPAR for testing on a relatively small machine?

Pete,

I see you gave a " Virtual i partitions hosted by IBM i" presentation at Orlando. I've downloaded it and will study it. Did you by any chance make any changes for your Common Europe presentation?

Any particular IBM manuals you recommend?

Thanks,
Sam

(Missed the Orlando presentation--left late on Wednesday.)

You don't need to worry about multiple controllers as the M25 is a power6
processor, and it can do virtual LPARS. This means, that an IBM I partition
on 6.1 or later can host another IBM I partition at 6.1 or later. It's
extremely simple to do ( I gave a presentation on this earlier this week at
COMMON Europe) and the only thing you need is an HMC if you have a Power6 or
Power7 machine, and both your hosting and hosted partitions can be either
6.1.x or 7.1. I have been building these for my customers now for the past
year and they work great.
