I looked through = the items in the announcment letter, and most of them say they are supported by PTF in z/VM 5.3 or 5.4. The only z/VM 6.1 only items I found were: 1. Limited to z10 only 2. Prefetch guest data into processor cache 3. Closer integration with IBM Systems Director What am I missing?
