Re: Native Domino - to LPAR or not to LPAR, that is the question.

Neil,

Main production lpar runs payroll, accounting, ERP, guests a linux lpar, 
controls an iscsi blade center and everything else under the sun, AND, 
supports ELEVEN Domino partitions.
We have another lpar supporting just 3 Domino partitions but that's our 
DMZ.
We have another lpar supporting all development, and, two Domino 
partitions.
We have another lpar, on a different box supporting just domino but eight 
Domino partitions.
...
...

Domino I can see breaking up into multiple DPAR's but on just the one 
lpar.  The DPAR's are so that when one Domino server goes bonkers you can 
drop just that one Domino server (which has it's own dedicated subsystem 
description) and run special utilities like DLTDOMSEM and DLTDOMSMEM that 
tie themselves to that particular server.  (These deal with Shared MEMory 
and SEMaphores.)
