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

Subject: z/VM and Linux on GP engines

Background:  Our warm-site machine is a z/890 in CBU configuration,
currently "maxed out" with GP engines; hence we cannot now add an IFL to
it.

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-
