needed to successfully create partitions on your server. Examples of capacity

|
||
|
<p>After understanding the hardware and software requirements for logical
|
||
|
partitions, it is time to develop a detailed outline of your company's immediate
|
||
|
and future workload demands for each partition. You need to consider how these
|
||
|
demands will change your system resources. You should focus on the workload
|
||
|
demand in each partition and then determine the hardware resources required
|
||
|
to achieve the desired server performance.</p>
|
||
|
<p>You can start the planning process for each partition on your server by
|
||
|
completing the following topics.</p>
|
||
|
<p>Refer to the <a href="http://www.ibm.com/eserver/iseries/lpar/" target="_blank">Logical Partition</a> <img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside Information Center" /> web site for additional information on planning for
|
||
|
logical partitions.</p>

The LPAR Validation Tool (LVT) emulates an LPAR configuration and

validates that the planned partitions are valid. In addition, LVT allows you

to test the placement of <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> and Linux<sup>®</sup> hardware

within the system to ensure that the placement is valid.</li>
