Precisely. It's never been easy on AIX, due to all the Ora++IBM
fighting.
But it's a good platform and the new Power6 chips are absolute
screamers.
I love that i570 we got now: with the lpar virtual partitioning and
the hypervisor on top, it's so easy to re-config on the fly it's not
even funny. We got so much stuff on it now it's mind-blowing.
Starting now to use AIX 6 on micro-lpars, which are even better.
Basically, all our Oracle servers hang off that beast, with a few app
servers thrown in and two AS400 servers in there as well!
