The i595 is a 64way Power5+ machine with up to 4TB of main memory and 381TB of internal disk and 168 iSCSI "channels". The largest z10EC is 64way zArch machine with up to 1.52 TB of main memory and 1024 channels. Of that, I don't know how much can be used by a single z/OS instance. Now, given that a Power5+ is "more powerful" than a z10EC CP, that makes the i595 "more powerful". I don't know how much of the Power6 is "used up" running the TIMI (iSeries instruction emulator). -- John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
