IBM i can now scale to 256 cores without partitioning.

Oh, no it can't...


"unless you get feature 1256..."
On the Power 795, you are limited to 32 cores and 128 threads for dynamic
logical partitions at the hardware level (that's one processor book and that
makes it a hardware partition of sorts) unless you get feature 1256, which
allows dynamic LPARs to scale up to the full 256 cores of the Power 795 system.
