IBM has a history of announcing the bigger processor of a processor
family first (e.g., the z/990 was announced before the z/890 was). I
suspect that the z/HER will be the designation of the smaller
modeland it will probably be better looking as well.

My R.O.T. is always define 1 virtual processor.
Except when performance data shows that more than one is better. :)
Also, you should never (except in certain really weird cases) define more virtual processors than
you have real processors.

Does anybody run some form of Installation Verification Procedures (IVP's)
for z/VM's base components? If so, are they home-grown, or where did you
find them?
I note that some licensed products for z/VM have IVP's in their Program
Directories, but don't see anything mentioned for the z/VM base
I would ask IBM to not close the PMR until there is a better error msg than
