The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
This is certainly possible in some environment but:
1) It requires you have PowerVM.
2) It requires you have an HMC.
3) Your tape controller MUST be PCIe and in the System unit.
4) If you don't have any partitions today and no skills for
virtualization this is a complicated process. Yes there are many people
on this list that can do this in their sleep (some of us do!) but if you
are a traditional Power System shop with just the one LPAR this is big
effort.
5) The conversion from standalone to hosted will take longer than
upgrading to POWER8!

Agree with Pete,
but one topic: on a Power6 running 7.1 and 0595 attached, you still can run 7.2 on hosted LPARs
if it is used for disks...

What about my hardware is Power6, but I have an 0595 attached to it which doesn't support 7.2?
