Jim, Linux on zSeries running as a guest supports PAV if the dasd device is dedicated to Linux. zVM does not provide support for PAV nor for Linux dasd setup as VM minidisk.
If you are looking for PAV for zVM system volumes or for minidisk supporting Linux then you need to provide a requirement to IBM for PAV support in zVM and for VM minidisk. ----------------------------------------------------- What's the latest support for PAV's for VM? To support Linux volumes under VM? Our MVS people want to jump from 3390-3 to 3390-"12" images. No problem for them, they have PAV's. But we have to share the shark. Our preference would be to go to 3390-"12" if there is PAV support, otherwise a smaller device size.
