Franz, the IBM-er is right, you can mix CP and IFL in a single LPAR with
either z/VM 5.4 or 6.1......if you are running 6.1, your system must be
a z10.
However, even if it is technically possible to mix engines, I generally
recommend that you limit your Linux LPARs to IFLs only. It guarantees
that all work in the LPAR will be dispatched on the faster IFL engines,
and may have financial implications with respect to software licensing
charges.

Hello listers,
an IBMer has told me that a mixture of CPs and IFLs in one LPAR are
supported on z10 not only with z/VM 6 but also with zVM 5.4. Is this
correct? I thought that for those environments you must have z/VM
6.
