Read logical and guest partition scenarios to understand how a partitioned server can be configured and used.

The following scenarios help you to understand how you can configure and use logical and guest partitions on your iSeries™ server. These scenarios introduce some common logical and guest partition implementations.

• Logical partition scenario: Server consolidation
  This scenario demonstrates how workload consolidation can be achieved on an iSeries server.
• Logical partition scenario: Scheduling movement of processing power
  This scenario shows how you can dynamically reallocate resources based on workload peaks.
• Guest partition scenario: Linux applications on the iSeries
  This scenario demonstrates how you can use the reliability of the iSeries to run Linux^® application.
• Guest partition scenario: Linux firewall
  This scenario demonstrates how you can implement a firewall using a guest partition running Linux^®.
