What is IBM i LPAR? Understanding Logical Partitioning on IBM Power Systems

IBM i LPAR, or Logical Partitioning, is a virtualization technology on IBM Power Systems that allows for the creation of isolated environments, or “partitions,” within a single physical server. Each LPAR operates as a separate instance, running its own IBM i operating system and applications, with dedicated resources like memory, CPU, and storage. By enabling multiple partitions on one server, IBM i LPAR improves resource utilization, simplifies workload management, and provides flexibility for running different applications or test environments independently. This technology is invaluable for businesses that require secure, cost-effective, and efficient management of various applications within the same physical infrastructure, supporting both high availability and scalability.
