Subject: Curiosity on Getting New Box with VIOS

Looking to spec a new development box that uses VIOS.

Is there a way to save an LPAR image to disk and then copy somewhere
else via FTP from the VIOS partition.

I was at IBM recently and remember some bits from one of the discussions
we had.

This would be a cool way to quickly save/restore an entire LPAR.
