1B3 LPAR vs VM 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.
