That is new to me. What z/VM services do Linux SAP guests depend on? Certainly not the TCPIP stack machine when the guest is connected to a vswitch. The controllers maybe, but under normal circumstances they are not terribly active as most vswitch work is done by CP. I can think of the MPROUTE server being affected, but then that one doesn't have a whole lot to do in an OSPF stub area with only a default route to the rest of the world. Pieter Brabant Water N.V.
