RE: Can a standard i5/OS V7R1 LPAR be migrated/converted to a client NWS LPAR?

Although I will say that once I was hosting disk from one lpar I cannot
see as to why I would host disk from two different lpars.
Well, maybe transitory. Let's say lpar 01 had it's own workload in
addition to hosting disk. Now you want to create lpar 05 and have it's
sole purpose to host disk. You add all new disk drives to lpar 05 and
guest them from there. And you start migrating lpar 01 from having it's
own disk to guesting off of lpar 05.

If this is what you are doing I would move the lpars hosted by lpar 01 to
being hosted by lpar 05.
Providing it's one LONG transition. Meaning, you plan on keeping these
old disk drives.

I sure would not cascade hosting. Meaning I would not have lpar 05 host
disk for lpar 01 who in turns host disk for lpar 02.
