Not really, no. GDPS is a collection of Services offerings that create an automated recovery HA/DR environment for System z (site failover, I/O failover, ...) with special focus on z/OS. GDPS already supports z/VM. If you mean "Is a z/VM Single System Image similar to a z/OS SYSPLEX?" then I would answer "Sort of." It will be a tightly-coupled cluster of z/VM systems that share resources, communicate information about those resources, and share a single security context. (And, no, it won't use the Coupling Facility.) Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
