  • 1.  IBM Power Cloud

    Posted 4 days ago

    Let's say you were ordering a new Power 11.  As part of the deal IBM throws in a years subscription to IBM Power Cloud.  Your company really has no cloud interest at this time.  What would you do with this offering?

    At this time we have two Power 10s and a Power 9.  The Power 9 will be getting replaced by a Power 11 mainly due to "change of support" and that it cannot run IBM i 7.6.  Across these machines are 14 LPARs of IBM i, two LPARs of AIX (solely for IBM Storage Protect) and the usual 6 LPARs of VIOS.  A couple of the IBM i LPARs are using software replication from one of the Power 10's to the Power 9 for H/A.  The Power 10's are in one data center, the Power 9 in another.  We're using Data Domain VTLs for backup and haven't had a physical tape drive in years.
