Your application must have the feature to get the availablilty of 100%. (Application-Cluster) The OS alone has not this feature.

We have 2 z/VM lpars, a test and a production but as far as I know, z/VM doesn't have a sysplex takeover mechanism. I can move the server from one lpar to the other easy enough but that move would disruptive in itself. Any ideas?
