KVM is just a Linux API, not an OS. There are multiple hypervisor running under Linux with KVM.

I know of: z/OS, z/VSE, z/TPF, and z/Linux. Are there any others? OK, the real reason I'm asking is to be a bit weird in a game that I play. It is "No Man's Sky",which is a space exploration game. When you discover a new star system or planet, you can rename it. So I plan to find a star with "n" planets, where "n" is the number of OSes which run on the IBMz platform. I will name the star IBMz, and the planets after the OSes. If there are any moons around a planet, I will try to name them after some major subsystem which runs on the OS with that name, such as JES2 or POWER or RSCS. -- I just burned 2000 calories! That's the last time I'll nap with brownies in the oven.
