In real world you cannot define values considering an one server or assumptions based on single system.
It depends on many factors.
1. What are you running on the system?
2. Is it a DB system or Application system?
3. Depends on Hardware (Model of pSeries like P5,6 or 7) and OS (AIX 5.3, 6.1 or 7.1) and
other software applications running on the system.
4. The software you are running is it CPU intensive? (we need hell lot of more details)
5. Another major factor is licensing on CPUs?
If you have answers to these questions, we can discuss further or help you with correct system profiles.
There are many intellectuals here, who can help you design a better system.
