RE: Who is your go to person for virtual disks?

Partitions were introduced with P4, and have progressed significantly since
then. (Larry and I were among the very early adopters and helped create the
IBM certifications for it) The virtualization we use today largely came
into being with V7. To mirror another comment IBM did an outstanding job of
providing the virtualization resources, network, storage, etc. There is no
BUG as you are suggesting. IBM i hosting IBM i is about as robust and easy
as it can be. Comparing it to another technology (VMWare in this case) is a
non sequitur since they are so different in the implementations.

VMWare is excellent, We use it quite a bit, but it cannot be compared to
PowerVM directly except in general terms.

Hello Larry,

I disagree. It is not 'A Bug' it is a design point that has been in there
since 1988 and most likely from the S/38 before that.

In 1988, OS/400 didn't support LPARs at all. I was solely talking about
virtual disks in *OPSYS LPARs within IBM i as hypervisor. Just to be clear.
