The performance is allegedly fantastic. You use a dynamic configuration file, and let the grid management software do its load balancing thing. Send an email to Bob Johnson at IBM - he's implemented a couple of them.

Ray
Do u have an email address/phone contact for Bob Johnson?
We are working in the same direction. We are outgrowing our AIX servers very quickly and we are always pleading for more servers more CPUs all the time.

Thanks

I don't, but everyone in IBM can find everyone else. Get your local rep to find Bob for you. (I am not an IBM employee, so don't have access to their internal systems. And Bob had run out of business cards at IOD.)

Thanks Ray.
We have notified the local IBM rep on our GRID interests.

A search on IBM Developer Works would be no bad thing.
