Right, but unless I'm mistaken, z/VM workload is GP only. The Linux workload is IFL only (or should be). No charge for IFL workload but there would be a minimal charge for the underlying z/VM processing (storage, memory, shared resources...)?

Larry Davis -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU] On Behalf Of Hughes, Jim Sent: Friday, April 01, 2011 3:32 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: z/VM and Linux Is there an additional z/VM charge when running Linux in an IFL? We already have z/VM 5.4 on a z/10. Just curious. Been out of the loop on licensing charges for a while.
