logical partitioning

Dynamic logical partitioning (DLPAR) provides a great deal of flexibility to your computing environment.

Logical partitioning provides POWER processor-based servers with the capability to do server consolidation and optimize system resources.

With logical partitioning (LPAR), IBM servers that feature the POWER processor can support multiple system requirements in a single machine.

Logical partitioning allows multiple operating systems to reside on a hardware platform simultaneously.

They are more comparable to Logical partitioning, as each virtual partition is assigned its own resources.

If we wanted to isolate our environments, the only way to do this would be through logical partitioning.

However, not all configurations support logical partitioning, and sometimes you need all of the resources available on the hardware.

Para-virtualization in the System p is realized through logical partitioning.

As indicated in section on logical partitioning, physical processors are logically divided in para-virtualization.

Others use a more software-oriented -- or logical partitioning -- approach.

It became the driving force behind the IBM Regatta servers, which allowed for logical partitioning.

You can create two types of partitions in the System p using the logical partitioning concept.

The following new hardware registers were introduced from POWER4 for implementing logical partitioning.

This is particularly important in the partitioned world, when you can Dynamic Logical Partitioning (DLPAR) at a moments notice.

In some ways, this is similar to IBM Logical partitioning.

Apart from the changes described so far, the additional hardware changes for implementing logical partitioning are detailed in this section
