1D1 LPAR vs VM Multiple Preferred Guests

Abstract:
In non-VM installations, hardware Logical Partitioning (LPAR) support is widely viewed as an alternative to VM/ESA's Multiple Preferred Guest (MPG) facilities. However, VM afficionados know that there must be a catch, since VM offers so much more. In fact, as this session explains, running VM in an LPAR can be a viable configuration option.

Because LPAR and MPG are based on many of the same technologies and concepts, it isn't surprising that they are often compared and sometimes confused. In this session, we try to present a factual comparison of LPAR and MPG, with an eye to helping customers decide which solution is the right one for them.
