Not likely gonna be cheap to run Linux on a CP. The CPs on the machine are
likely kneecapped. And using them for Linux will probably drive up MSU
costs on non-Linux systems. And you can't have a single Linux system use
both an IFL and a kneecapped CP concurrently. So if it is a single Linux
instance which is soaking the IFL, the only choice reasonable is another
IFL.


I dare to disagree, twice.
1. CPs can be kneecapped, but "likely" seems to be unfounded.
2. IMHO running Linux on CP is expensive because CP (hardware) is expensive and *maybe* some ISV costs depend on MIPS base. However we have scenario where the CP is already bought, no CP purchase, no MIPS-related upgrades apply. MLC software bills from IBM will not be affected (assumed WLC), because none of z/OS LPARs will increase CPU usage.
