Yes, and others saw that clever trick years earlier. Here's the history. In July, 2010, IBM issued a Statement of Direction announcing its intention to add Live Guest Relocation to z/VM. IBM then made Live Guest Relocation generally available as part of z/VM Version 6.2 Single System Image (SSI) on November 29, 2011. http://www.vm.ibm.com/ssi/ http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg248039.pdf z/VM SSI is an optional z/VM feature. On April 10, 2018, IBM announced that z/VM SSI will become part of the base z/VM product in the next release of z/VM, Version 7.1. IBM expects to release z/VM 7.1 in the third quarter of 2018. https://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/rep_ca/0/897/ENUS218-150/ENUS218-150.PDF -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples IT Architect Executive, Industry Solutions, IBM Z & LinuxONE, Multi-Geography E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
