Thought I would jump in as well. We have a p650 three LPARs and adding
three more. I looked at the docs etc. that I have and did not see anything
either.

I am sure I read something about this somewhere but for the life of me I
cannot find anything about this now.

The four pack disks that are installed in the I/O drawers have to be
"normally" assigned to one LPAR because of the one SCSI bus, but I believe
there is something called split-scsi that allows the disk pack to be split
between LPARs. Can anybody verify this and possibly point me to some
documentation please?

Specifically I am looking at configuring a p650 for 5 lpars.

TIA
