IBM i and Multi-core

IBM i Automated license management – IBM i only accesses number of cores entitled to– When additional license keys installed, IBM i provided access to additional cores– Offered today on POWER6 multi-core systems

PowerVM– PowerVM Express defaulted on 710, 720, 730 and 740 orders for all active cores– PowerVM Express may be removed from order – With IBM i, PowerVM core licenses may be reduced to the number of IBM i licenses

• No need for active core deconfguration
