Mixed O/S 3 Tier Architecture for DataStage
Hi,
Currently we are running DataStage on a 2 tier Arch.
We now want to move onto 3 tier Architecture.
Can I install DataStage engine on AIX and Services on Window Operating System box?

IBM usually advise against mixing platform types.
Therefore they're unlikely to document how to do it. Indeed, the most recent Installation and Upgrade Guide specifically prohibits mixing platform types between repository, services and engine tiers.

Does IBM support Sub capacity on the same Server.
I don't know if that makes sense to you. Let me elaborate.
As of now we have Engine Tier and Services Tier installed on the same Machine (AIX)
Now we have upgraded our Engine tier (got License for 4 core from 2 core), to 4 core, Service tier still is at 2 core. Now instead of separating these two boxes. I want to create a virtual machine and extend the Engine tier to make use of 4 cores, Service Tier to make use of only 2 Core.
Did any one of implement this, if yes how did you go about it?

That's precisely what my current site is using - one LPAR for repository and services tiers, three LPARs each running an engine tier and yet another repository running InfoSphere Warehouse (DB2 version 9.7 Warehouse Edition). The license DOES allow for it.

As documented. All this information is on IBM website, and may change over time so it's better to direct you there rather than lock anything in here. Also, the total disk space is a function of the volume of data you will be processing, about which we have no information.
