AiX - Logical Partioning - How resources are shared

Following are the ways in which resources are shared

Micro-Partitioning feature allows processor resources to be shared automatically among logical partitions that use the shared processor pool. The shared processor pool includes all processors on the server that are not dedicated to specific logical partitions. Each logical partition that uses the shared processor pool is assigned a specific amount of processor power from the shared processor pool. If the logical partition needs more processor power than its assigned amount, the logical partition is set by default to use the unused processor power in the shared processor pool. The amount of processor power that the logical partition can use is limited only by the virtual processor settings of the logical partition and the amount.
