Re: V7R1 is SAN bootable on Power 914

[DrFranken <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can see you dabbling with this as I have done similar in the past. I 
am surprised it even boots up, that's truly unexpected. I would never 
put this into production however. 'Unsupported' being the operative word 
here.

You will never see a mention from IBM that this works because they have 
stated that it is unsupported. That is the only statement you will get 
from IBM. Bet on it!

Basically I did a Full system Flash copy from the same LPAR on a Power 8 box and booted the V7R1 LPAR on the Power 914 connected to the same Storwize and it works fine. So far, no problems reported or anything wrong.
