A customer has defined their server needs as a four-LPAR 16-way p570 with 64GB of memory, four 10/100/1000 TX LAN adapters, and six fibre channel adapters to external storage in an IBM ESS (Shark). They like the idea of being able to do SAN maintenance while not incurring downtime. If all LPARs are production related and similar, which question is most appropriate for the pSeries technical specialist to ask?()
- AWould 10/100 Ethernets work as well?
- BShould there be eight fibre channel adapters?
- CShould there be an async adapter for heartbeat?
- DWill all LPARs need access to a common fibre channel tape drive?
