<h1 class="topictitle1">Decide what runs in the primary and secondary partition</h1>
<div><p>Each secondary partition on an iSeries™ server acts as an independent
system on the server.</p>
<p>However, these partitions maintain a dependency on the primary partition.
It must be running to keep each secondary partition on the system accessible.
With that in mind, deciding on what runs in the primary partition is important
to maintain stability throughout your system.</p>
<p>If you have multiple production environments on the same server, it is
recommended to configure the primary partition with the minimum amount of
hardware resources and if necessary use the primary only for applications
that are stable.</p>
<p>Secondary partitions can handle different types of workload demands without
causing down time on the server. You can perform fixes or new release testing
on secondary partitions before installing these packages to the primary partition.
Applications that require high availability should be running in a secondary
partition to minimize problems with the applications. You can also use the
secondary partition to back-up data on another partition on the server. This
way if data is lost the secondary partition responsible for backing up the
information can be used without causing delays to your business schedule.</p>
