Re: IBM i vs VIOS for Host Partition

I currently have a system running all native disk with VIOS as the host and
IBM i as guest partitions. So no SAN is 'required' either way.

If I understand the question, believe you could get away from the having to
rely upon using storage spaces and could go back to using dedicated lpars.
This solution I believe requires SAN storage only.

I am curious about the Performance differences, if any, when hosting IBM
i
on IBM i vs IBM i on VIOS. Are the 2 methods about the same? Wildly
Different?
Do I need more Memory or CPU generally speaking for one vs the other etc?

I don't need or want a discussion on what features/capabilities of each
method, but just how well the guest partitions perform. Looking for real
life experiences and any book type references..

Thanks
