Maybe they assume you to have your VIOS LPARs on external SAN (directly attached).
We're considering this setup since we had some weird issue last week. P7 740
with dual-VIOS running fine except when the split backplane failed...
(the only part which is not redundant in these boxes).

I'm wondering how this slices and dices disk. For example, on my Power
8's I have one mirrored pair for VIOS1 lpar. Another mirrored pair for my
VIOS2 lpar. And 60+ SSD's all controlled by my IBM i based hosting lpar
which serves up virtual disk to the rest of my guests of IBM i and AIX.
So, where does this HMC lpar fit into all this?
