Hardware setup

A prerequisite to deploying a virtual computing environment is to set up your hardware. Use this to gain an understanding of the tools and documentation that are available to assist you.

Deployment of your virtual system begins with appropriate hardware setup. While most of the virtualization-specific configuration procedures are performed while configuring logical partitions and installing software, correctly setting up your hardware ensures that your system is capable of starting and is functional before you perform such additional virtualization and other custom configurations. You can use the system-plan file (exported from the System Planning Tool) to help you place hardware within your server.
