If you will be running in LPAR, that expanded storage is _not_ going to be directly usable by Linux. If you use the xpram device driver to create swap volumes, it can be used in that way, but not otherwise.

I have split the Storage almost down the middle, With Linux getting 3096MB of Central and 768MB of Expanded Storage. Can this group give any recommendations for a configuration and appropriate software packages for this configuration.
