A prime example of doing just that is the System Management Application
Programming Interface server, which has been available for last few years.
All of the facilities needed for creating and managing a collection of Linux
application servers under VM are available to a client program running in
Linux or even on Windows. The SMAPI server distributes control of your
running Linux servers and allows cloning of new servers using your choice of
VM:Secure or DIRMAINT directory managers. All the pieces run on CMS. It's a
great place to run servers!
