Hello
I am a ZOS system programmer, so I am a beginner in VM and Linux.
I had to install a ZVM and Linux for testing.
I need some help for the following.
I need for our test a comunication between LInux Zlinux and ZOS.
I know the definitions in ZOS. But

on a z9 and setting the CPUID for a guest operating system either in the
directory or by command. Do the first 2 digits of the 6 character cpuid i

the SET CPUID command actually simulate a virtual LPAR number? If so, wha
The first digits that are changed by LPAR is not to tell the operating
system in which LPAR they run, but to make the virtual CPUIDs unique in
the whole CEC.
So, with SET CPUID on does not simulate an LPAR id.

For those of you doing cost justification cases for your existing System

The papers are available at
