Well, zAAP for MVS isn't quite equal to an IFL. For those of use running z/VM, each IFL is another charagable copy of z/VM.
And for the LPAR people, as well as the z/VM people, an IFL is another charge for any software that charges by engine (DB2, Websphere, etc) I would rather see a zAAP for Linux/390 Tom Duerbusch THD Consulting >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 06/18/04 01:39PM >>> This is what I was hoping, also.

I was really hoping that a zAAP would be a bit more interesting than just a co-processor running S/390/zSeries code. I had visions of a processor that executed the Java bytecodes directly (or via "millicode" anyway). -----Original Message----- The zAAP feature isn't needed for Linux as you can just add another processor for the same cost as a zAAP. It saves money on z/OS because the maintenance cost go up if you add another regular processor, but not if you add a zAAP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
