the planning work sheet.</p>
|
|
<p>Once you understand logical partition concepts, you are ready to develop
|
|
a plan that evaluates your hardware resources, software release levels, and
|
|
your company's immediate and future workload demands. This section guides
|
|
you through the necessary steps in the planning process before you create
|
|
partitions on your iSeries™ server.</p>

needed to partition your server. Evaluate each iSeries model to determine how your hardware
|
|
will function once you partition your server.</li>
