Alan:
Thanks. I was pretty sure we could only use Spectrum Scale for Linux. We
may do that and put in a small V box for z/VM.

Implementing a hardware-based FCP target on Linux on Intel or Windows is
possible (the code for Linux is in the iscsi-support package for specific
Qlogic brand FCP adapters on Intel), but I suspect it would take some
development
I wouldn't think so. You'd need a client on VM.

Not on Z, no. Since z/VM only support native FCP as the client side, the
FCP
Can Spectrum Scale (GPFS) be used as the disk to install z/VM? I know we
can use it for Linux on Z, but wondering if I can get away without any
V disk.
