The following link makes it sound like you can run Linux and MS Windows virtual servers on z/VM 5.3. Is this the case? We are looking for a Main Frame / Enterprise Server that will run x86 based OSs like Linux and MS Windows. Regards, Bill William Perry San Joaquin County Information Systems Division 24 S.
