Hello,

This is my first email posting in this list & would like to get certain
information about IBM Power Servers.

I have total three (3) IBM Power Servers and the Hardware Configuration is
as given below.

*Model:* IBM Power 6 P520
*Make:* 8203-E4A

1) 28 GB RAM
2) 584 GB HDD (146 GB x 4 HDD)
3) 64 bit CPU
4) 4 NIC's
5) 4 Core Power Processor with 4204 MHz Clock Speed
6) SATA DVD ROM

Previously, I was using *IBM AIX 5.3 OS* & considering the client need, I
have to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux/ CentOS / Fedora OS by overwriting
AIX OS.

Through some popular "Red Hat Blog", I came to know that *Fedora 20*
supports IBM Power Servers. The important links are as given below.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PowerPC/F20_PPC_release_announcement

So, I would like to get full HCL (Hardware CompatibilityList) whether
Fedora Supports IBM Power. Additionally, Is it possible to create virtual
platform on Fedora 20 to make multiple VMs. Those VMs may contain Windows
Operating Systems i.e. Windows 7, Windows 2003 & 2008.

Please Acknowledge,


Regards,
*Nishith N.Vyas*


So, Kindly provide pricing according to above configuration & would like to
know if you can provide support for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization
(RHEV), if the Power Server Supports *Bare Metal Hypervisor*.
