According to a recent Yankee Group study* of 400 Windows, Linux and UNIX users, AIX was

the most reliable server operating system:

“IBM’s AIX achieved the highest level of reliability, with corporate enterprises reporting an average of only 36 minutes of downtime

per server in a 12-month period”

PowerVM Live Partition Mobility

A POWER6 feature that allows an entire Logical Partition (LPAR) to be relocated from one system to another with almost no impact to the end user

The end user effect is a single delay of two seconds when the relocation is completed

Supported by AIX V6.1, AIX V5.3 and Linux®

PowerVM Live Partition Mobility requires that all I/O be virtualized through the Virtual I/O server at the time of the relocation

What is it?

Movement to adifferent server with no loss of

service

Live Partition Mobility requires the purchase of the optional PowerVM Enterprise Edition.

AIX V6.1 PowerVM Workload Partitions (WPAR)

Virtualized AIX operating system environments within a single AIX image

Each WPAR shares the single AIX operating system

Applications and users inside a WPAR cannot affect resources outside the WPAR

TCO reduction of 60 – 70%Dynamic reallocation of capacity to meet unpredictable demand

“Tying specific pieces of server and storage hardware to applications was very limiting, because it locked us into buying new and larger pieces of equipment, driving up costs. Working with IBM, Colgate has already improved IT asset utilization, efficiency and productivity, with flexible IT services that meet customers’ needs and reducing costs by 60 – 70%.”
