Probably the vendor will be able to confirm they have no clue about VM and the committee that selected this tool will be conclude that you're excused. And that would be the end of the story. Been there. I invested quite some time to explain why it was outrageous that we had to install an of an extra version of Java on each Linux server, just to run the selected security scanner. I thought my case was pretty strong when we found the product caused a security risk rather than fix one. The product specialist then explained the product was supported on Linux for zSeries but not for Linux on z/VM. Obviously the man had no clue what he was talking about, but it fit the bill. -Rob
