A valuable feature of PowerVM is a feature that is used for higher availability plus stream for posting, which is very useful. There's a flash copy feature which we are using. PowerVM itself, I know, helps us to control and manage our Oracle licensing compliance, since it is our hardware partitioning. This is very important. If you use VMware, there will be a licensing issue. This PowerVM is a hardware partitioner, which is very important for license compliance. We are happy with this solution.
The most valuable features in this solution are you do not get degradation in the performance like you could get in other solutions. There is a physical adapter that is better than a virtual one and you can assign adapters to a VM.
Active Memory Sharing dynamically reallocates memory of running partitions based on changing workload demands. The memory for the pool is carved out from Physical memory and is made logical memory. The said memory is not available to be assigned to partitions as dedicated memory. A min, max and desired as well as weight is assigned to the memory of each lpar to help hypervisor make a decision in case a condition where priority is to be given to a certain lapr to use the memory form shared pool.
Power is server virtualization without limits. Businesses are turning to PowerVM server virtualization to consolidate multiple workloads onto fewer systems, increasing server utilization and reducing cost. PowerVM provides a secure and scalable server virtualization environment for AIX, IBM i and Linux applications built upon the advanced RAS features and leading performance of the Power Systems platform.
Managing other operating systems is also straightforward with IBM PowerVM.
The valuable feature of the solution is the technical aspects, focusing on elements like processor infinity.
IBM PowerVM's most valuable feature is stability.
The tool's performance is top-notch.
We always recommend PowerVM to our customers; it is better than most solutions.
PowerVM's most valuable features include swift optimisation and real-time migration.
The most valuable feature of IBM PowerVM is the performance of the database workload.
IBM PowerVM has the highest clock speed.
You can increase resources with it automatically.
It is a complete solution.
It is a stable solution with reliable performance.

It's scalable. Whenever we buy another product other than hardware, it's easily integrated into the virtualization software that we download.
The case fileserver on the web server is the most valuable feature.
The most valuable feature is the flexibility in terms of managing the hardware resources such as RAM, CPU, and the network.
The stability is the most valuable aspect of this solution. IBM is the most powerful and stable platform.
It's in English, so its exceptional qualities make the control environment more flexible, easier, more stable, and easy to recover after issues.
The feature that I like most is the versatility.
What I like about this solution, is that it is easy to configure.
