Re: new cume out for 7.1

Good info...

I was just thinking you could save a bit on having to do
PTFs/Saves/Upgrades separately for each partition...

Plus was thinking even the smallest LPAR might be overkill...but I'm not
sure how small they can go now-a-days.

We could possibly do multi-tennent but honestly with 100% virtual
everything these days it is very cost effective to have a private LPAR and
that makes PTFs and full saves and O/S upgrades and LPP installs etc so
much simpler.

I'd consider a multi-tenant solution if I only had 5 users...

That should be cheaper than a single tenant LPAR. Don't know if the doc
offers that.

And that assumes your application would work in that environment.

Absolutely agree with this logic.
Give me a call if you are interested. We can provide i 7.1 2 or 3 and for
5 users you're talking a very small slice of a machine! Then it's no
lease,
no purchase, no tapes, etc. Really can be very cost effective. Our
infrastructure is focused on this very small size customer.
