p550 Config

[AIXFinder]

I am in the process of p550 config and need to make sure I am not missing anything before placing the purchase order.
is there anything to be added for better maintenance and system mgt? A rack and HMC are not included because I am going to utilized the existing ones.

Fine if you already have a p5 HMC. (A p4 HMC is incompatible with p5 servers)

At first glance config seems OK. But you won't be partitioning the server I assume.

>> you won't be partitioning the server

That is not an option for us now.
