Yes z/VM can bring up with a IFL only partition.
If you choose z/VM mode you can select IFL and is mandatory to select a
CP too. This is useful when you want to run z/VSE under z/VM and some
Linux on Z machines under same z/VM.
z/VSE nor z/OS will run under a z/VM with IFL only engines.

I have a friend overseas who is trying to bring up z/VM on an IFL for the first
time on a z196. Seeing that I do not yet have a z196, I am posting here.
He asked me if, on the HMC activation profile, is it now required to select at
least one CP in addition to the IFL specification? He tried to just select the
IFL and got the following error:
"The list of selected processors is not valid. For z/VM mode, if the IFL is
selected, then the CP must be selected."
Is this now the new reality?
