We run our zLinux images on a GP, sub-GP at that. We have experienced no technical issues.

A proposed z/VM / Linux POC is being delayed because an "IBM rep" apparently told one of our decision-makers that Linux "can't run on a GP engine", and we're not allowed to proceed unless we can show D/R capability equivalent to our z/OS environment. So, regarding "Linux can't run on a GP engine", would one or more of you please affirm or refute that statement? Expound as you deem appropriate, but "keep it clean". :-) TIA, -jc- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
