I don't want to put UML on zSeries but I want to prove that z/VM is the best choice
Can you give me the pros and cons ...

Linux on 390 Port
In the past december I tried UML to virtualize some mail server on an
x86 box.
The performances I obtained was very bad (about 1/10 of the real box in
terms of mail/minute, mainly due to tun/tap network); moreover, the
guests experienced some random freeze.
From then many bugs have been fixed and perhaps I could get some better
performance applying the SKAS patch to the host kernel.
But definitely I don't want to patch a production kernel, at least for
official support issues.
And, based on what I see in the download page at sourceforge.net, it
seems the UML now is at 0.59 version.
Even if UML had full s390 support, do you really want a production
environment based on an 0.x product?
Best regards.
