POWER Hypervisor and Virtual I/O Server (VIOS)

The POWER Hypervisor and Virtual I/O Server technologies allow
customers to create partitions in units of less than one CPU (sub-CPU
LPARs) and for the same system I/O to be virtually added to these
partitions. This optional feature, available for a per processor fee,
combines two components:


  • Firmware feature to turn on the POWER Hypervisor technologies,
    including Logical Partitioning (LPAR), Dynamic LPAR and
    Micro-Partitioning

  • Software feature to activate the I/O virtualization

At initial order entry, selecting feature number 1965 will result in
the POWER Hypervisor technology being enabled during manufacture. The
selection of feature number 1965 will also enable the VIOS software media
and publications to be shipped to the customer. However, the VIOS
software will not be pre-installed in manufacturing.

When ordering feature number 1965 as an MES, an activation key will be
posted on an IBM Web site and the customer must retrieve and install it
on the system. The IBM Web site is:

POWER Hypervisor and Virtual I/O
Server (VIOS) Limitations (#1965)


  • If any processors in a system have the feature number 1965, all
    active processors must have it.

  • Once feature number 1965 is installed in
    a system, it cannot be removed.

  • Virtual Ethernet and Virtual Storage are part of feature 1965.

The POWER Hypervisor and VIOS feature is supported by the following
levels of the Linux operating systems:


  • SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 for POWER, or later
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS for POWER Version 3 or later

    (#1965) POWER Hypervisor


    This feature allows the customer to create partitions that are in
    units of less than 1 CPU (Micro-Partitioning).

    The processor(s) on the system can be partitioned into as many as 10
    LPARs per processor. An encrypted key is supplied to the customer and
    installed on the system, authorizing the partitioning at the
    sub-processor level.
