- Add all the CPU numbers together.
The price of z/VM is based on that total. Note that as the number of CPUs
goes up, the average z/VM license cost per CPU goes down. (At your 4th
CPU you start to see the price go down.)

That hasn't been true for years, unless you're talking about traditional

Right, but unless I'm mistaken, z/VM workload
is GP only. The Linux workload is IFL only (or should be).
There's nothing in the code that cares what kind of processor it runs on.
There are licensing issues with CMS workload (and running VSE and z/OS
guests) in that it's really expensive to run

that is on http://linuxvm.org/present :
-The z/VM sections are updated from
to understand how to operate z/Linux under z/VM.
Must be ready to work in a dynamic environment and be adaptable to change

Immediate needs are the implementation of DIRMAINT and the ability to
cross train co-workers in the ESS MVS group. Must have strong oral and
written communication skills
