I knew we were being to vague in this announcement (or technically preview). Virtualization Engine (VE) is TWO things. First, it is a set of VE Systems Technologies that include hypervisors. Second, it is a set of VE Systems Services which are designed to make it easier to manage these systems as a single entity (an example is Enterprise Workload Manager).
The Systems Technologies part will vary depending on the platform. On zSeries it is LPAR and z/VM. On iSeries and pSeries it will be a new hypervisor (not yet announced) which will extend the rather basic LPAR support currently available on pSeries and complement the guest support in OS/400. The announcement letter actually gives a pretty good overview, as does http://www.ibm.com/eserver/about/virtualization/ Jim ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
