Is it similar to VMware,= in which virtual I/O imposes significant overhead, but most processor and = memory access runs at close to native physical speed?" I don't know anything about VMWARE so I could not answer the question. = I know that CCW Translation in VM costs significant cycles. I think FCP disks < dedicated DASD < fullpack minidisks < small minidisks= . I would HOPE that the zSeries, with so much of virtualization built into = the hardware, would have lower costs than VMWARE, but I don't really kn= ow. Any takers? Are there any web sites that give performance comparisons VM versus VMWAR= E? Alan Ackerman = Alan (dot) Ackerman (at) Bank of America (dot) com
