The box isn't maxed out, but it's pretty close. It's a base z13s and no money to upgrade it. The cards are a cheap way to get by (they are under $400 with $0 increase in maintenance costs), whereas the cost of a CF is far greater. We can't use the software CF option (build a CF lpar without a actual CF processor) because that would take us over the tipping point and no budget to add any more MSU's to resolve it. Maybe in a year or so, but for now that's not a viable option.
