[gpfsug-discuss] Used virtualization technologies for GPFS/Spectrum Scale

[Luis Bolinches]

Hi

822 is an entry scale out Power machine, it has limited RAS compared with 
the high end ones (870/880). The 822 needs to be down for CPU / DIMM 
replacement:

. And it is not a end user task. You can argue that, I owuld but it is the 
current statement and you pay for support for these kind of stuff.

How about when you go to replace the DIMM? You able to hot-swap the memory
without anything losing its mind? (I know this is possible in the Z/series
world, but those usually have at least 2-3 more zeros in the price tag).
