Can anyone help me with this issue? I am responsible for getting a z/800 up and running with z/VM and Linux. I am still caught up on the hardware stage though. I was told by people that I absolutely NEED a 2074 (or a 3174 and a console) controller to install VM. I've heard several places that the HMC and SE will not allow me to interact with the z/VM installation program. Now, as we are getting closer to bringing our z/800 to life, I am hearing from someone that we CAN use the HMC to interact with the z/VM installation program and we DO NOT need a 2074 (or 3174) at all. Can anyone shed some light on this mystery? And if possible, can you point me in the direction of the appropriate Redbook and/or official IBM documentation? Thanks.
