We initially picked SuSE back in 2001 because they were shipping the OSA support and seemed to have more vendors on board (i.e. Oracle went there first).
My boss keeps saying he'll get RedHat too if someone has a good reason technical reason to run it in addition to SuSE (and that reason is not because that's what we do on Intel or that's what we used before ). So far, no one has come up with one. Marcy Cortes This message may contain confidential and/or privileged information.

Which zLinux distributions are you using, and why did you pick that one? Also, can anyone explain what Red Hat was thinking when they wrote "IBM zSeries & s/390 subscriptions include the ability to run and support up 25 Enterprise Linux AS instances/images per subscription, per engine"? IBM's current z/VM licensing scheme is great, and even in the old "model group" days, they didn't care how many CMS virtual machines I ran.
