And, you have one less skill set requirement! Give me a performance anayst, a sysprog, and a hardware guy. With them I can set up a multiple LPAR environment. Do it with z/VM in the mix, and I need another SYSPROG. VM & MVS skills are rare to find in the same individual(s). I'm not belittling their skills. I just don't need them in a PR/SM environment.
