    I only have three Power 8's. I am planning on upgrading them to Power 9's. I find it hard to obtain the system requirements for my HMC. For example, will I need more memory? I am running HMC 8.8.6.0SP2. Each Power 8 has 2 lpars of vios, five lpars of IBM and two of the three Power 8's also has an lpar of AIX.  I am aware that I will have to upgrade to V9 R1.910.0.
