Does anyone out there know whether two LPARS in A capacity group, would 
steal resource from each other first, or form "white space" if it were 
available?
Let's assume LPAR Prod = 200 MIPS LPAR Dev =100 mips. There is white space 
available of 100 MIPS.

Prod reaches 100% and starts sneaking above the 200 MIPS mark (it is soft-
capped only so it willl take a while before it is pegged back). Prod now 
requires 
250 MIPS and Dev is only running at 40% capacity so there are 60 MIPS 
available to "loan" to Prod. 

The question: Will Prod dip into the spare capacity on Dev first or into "white 
space" first??
