    I'm NOT an expert in AIX/Power system, and I was wondering if AIX can run on VM like vmware , we are trying to install some Java software to our client and some of their LPARs are in a production zone and hard to access them, so we thought if we can build the image in our system and then just dump it when we finish !

    Any thoughts ?
