<h1 class="topictitle1">Virtual OptiConnect</h1>
<div><p>Virtual OptiConnect allows one partition to communicate with another
partition if both partitions have virtual OptiConnect enabled.</p>
<p>Any partition can use virtual OptiConnect. You can enable virtual OptiConnect
at any time. When you enable or disable virtual OptiConnect, the changes take
effect immediately. No additional hardware is required to use virtual OptiConnect.
However, you must purchase the OptiConnect (a priced optional feature) <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> software to use
this feature.</p>
