I think the zIIP is more generic. At least it can be used for DB2 and/or Oracle and perhaps other DBs. The zAAP can only be used for Java.

I would think that this is a 'trade secret' for IBM and one they would prefer to control/license as they are with zIIP for z/OS workloads (zAAP appears to be a little more generic). Ken Porowski -----Original Message----- Ted MacNEIL > can't see what would prevent a mix of IFL+n*zAAP+m*zIIP LPAR from running linux How about: it's not supported -- there is no code in zLINUX to (a) recognise zAAPs & zIIPs, and (b) run anything on it. >(unless, again, there is too much stuff stripped from the zAAPs & zIIPs >that would prevent it from running general purpose threads). There is -- that's the whole point. Not IPLable. Only designed for specific purposes under z/OS -- no othe zSoftWare supports them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This email from the State of California is for the sole use of the intended recipient and may contain confidential and privileged information.
