Virtualization Engine technologies concepts

This information describes the virtualization technologies that are available.

These virtualization technologies are available:

Enterprise Enablement is a Virtualization Engine technology that enables the system for 5250 Online Transaction Processing (OLTP).
Advanced POWER® is a Virtualization Engine technology that enables the system for the following features:
- Virtual I/O hosting
- Partition Load Manager
- Micro-Partitioning™ (System p5®)

This table contains the System i Enterprise Enablement features. Full Enterprise Enablement means that 100 percent of the processors are enabled.
