John,
Yes, HATS run on MainFrameLinux using WAS. So, do I understand you
in that I can assign two IFL's to my VM, and most of my MFL's could
have access to both IFL's except for the MFL that runs HATS? I
somehow assign a cpu to it in my USER DIRECT statements?

If HATS runs on Linux, then you could have a dedicated Linux guest
for HATS. And in z/VM, you could assign a single virtual CPU to that
Linux instance. That would restrict the HATS Linux system to run on
a single CPU at a time (might switch from CPU to CPU, but only use one).

Subject: IFL's, VM, Suse, OH MY...
Folks,
I've done about a 45 minute search and I think my answer is
that I'd have to run multiple VM's per frame but wanted to ensure I
was right. My management wants to run some product called HATS on
our VM/MFL world. We recently upgraded from our z/890's with 1 IFL
each to z9BC's with 2 IFL's each. I guess to keep costs down they
want to run on one IFL this HATS worlds so the question to me was
can I run a single VM with BOTH IFL's allocated but alot the HATS
world only 1 IFL. Is this possible with VM config parms or some
other way like maybe my HMC which I just thought of but haven't
looked at yet. I know we have to lic Suse for more engines. Just
more interested in is it even doable. THANX!!!!
