we are seriuosly thinking to implement zLinux on our z890 box. Initially we would define one CP as IFL, define a couple of new LPARs (test and prod) to run zLinux native. However, our SR claims that if you have one IFL you can run *only one* zLinux LPAR native. It seems veeeeeery weird to me. I thought it was possible to have, say, one IFL to be shared across two, three or four Linux LPARs. Can someone shed some light ?
When you create the image profile for the Linux-only partitions, you get to specify the processor resources to which it has access on the "Processor" tab. You must choose between a) dedicated central processors, b) dedicated integrated facility for Linux, c) not dedicated central processors, and d) not dedicated integrated facility for Linux. Choose option 'd' if you want to share the IFL across multiple LPARs.
