And what does "a significant CPU hit" mean for those of us who's 4HRA is already at the top of our machine's capacity? That's where my concern is. Yeah, the money for increasing MSUs is gonna stink, but missing SLAs due to the box no longer being big enough is going to really bite.

If there's a significant CPU hit, maybe shave some % off the top of the bill, after seeing before and after MSU numbers at each customer site? – Vignesh Mainframe Infrastructure -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dana Mitchell Sent: 10 January 2018 21:59 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: System z & Meltdown/Spectre IBM Security notification SN-2018-001 was updated yesterday with some Linux and z/VM info.
