There is no new pricing model.  If you mix IFLs and CPs into a single
z10 
z/VM-mode LPAR, your z/VM license fee will be based on the sum of all 
active IFLs and CPs on the box, whether all the CPs are in the z/VM LPAR

or not.

At least, that's what the MSRP would be if IBM had MSRPs.  But we don't,

so you would need to talk to your IBM rep or BP.  Don't even THINK about

taking them to a nice restaurant and plying them with fine wines.  No - 
don't even consider it.  Perish the thought.  Inappropriate.  Highly.
