Again? I thought you got your boss straightened out about that the last time.

I thought you had to > have at least one zOS enabled engine. There is no such thing as a "zOS" (s/b z/OS) enabled engine. There are three ways processors can be configured on a zSeries system. As a standard or traditional engine, as an Integrated Facility for Linux (IFL) engine, or as an Integrated Coupling Facility (ICF) engine. IFLs can only run Linux workloads (with or without z/VM). ICFs only run the Coupling Facility Control Code (licensed internal code). On standard engines you can run z/OS, OS/390, z/VM, VM/ESA, VSE/ESA, TPF, Linux for S/390, and Linux for OS/390. You can order a z800-0FL model which has only IFL engines (one to four) and comes with z/VM in the price. Regards, Jim
