Zlinux proc use Vs Linux under other platforms

2009-05-05 Thread Daniel Vila
Hello people , I wanna know if any of you was looking about howto compare
a Zlinux under VM with another platform Linux server in order to know
the convenience to implement or not a server. Any benchmark , or TPMC
comparison will be useful.

Tks in advance Dany

LoZ proc use Vs Linux under other platforms

2009-05-05 Thread Daniel Vila
Kurt, Mark,Erik tks for your quick response, some answers was very useful
and self explanatory.
I understand that mainframe use have several advantage when high i/o and
high network throughput is required and couldn't be compared.
But are there any cost table whatever be the processing unit that can be
used to compare with other platforms ?

Yes , I,m using the Kernel provided in the SLES11 DVD distro , about the
memory suggestion , I tried with different virtual memory sizes (512, 768
 1024)
and the error continue being the same .

390 hardware is a 2064 machine with a Zvm 5.3 running healthy copies of
SLES10 SP1

MD5 checksum number was ok (i checked it comparing the SLES11 DVD given
number (by Novell) with the received dvd image.

About the transfer , was done binary fixed 80 , here is the VM list to
check ..

Re: Windows an linux under z/VM






The trick does QEMU (http://www.nongnu.org/qemu/). All other 
virtualisation
options that are currently available do not provide you with X86
architecture on z/Series.

I tried Windows 2003 Server to install and this was working. Depending on
which z/Series machine you have, the emulation is quite slow. I used a
z/990. The installation took me about 8 hours but finally it was working.
The LPAR was running under z/VM with 2 IFL processors. During installation
one IFL was nearly fully busy. So you see that QEMU needs a lot of
processing power. Would be nice to see how a z/10 is performing with QEMU. 
I
checked it with version 0.9.1 which had some compiling dependencies on gcc
3.4.x I think this limitation is now lifted with the new version of QEMU. 
As
Linux I used DEBIAN for s/390.

Of course the more promissing thing is z/VOS (
http://www.mantissa.com/blog/63). 
I am looking forward eagerly to try this but I don't think it is available 
yet.

Best regards,
Florian
