Rob: On zSeries you require a RHEL license for each processor which allows a maximum of 25 Linux guests. So if you have 70 Linux guests and 2 IFLs you need 3 licenses. On ALL other architectures, the RHEL license is per image. So on "Intel" with VMware, iSeries or pSeries with LPARs or the POWER Hypervisor, HP systems with LPAR/VPAR, etc. you need a license for each image. If you were running 10 images of RHEL under VMware on a 2-way XEON you would need 10 licenses. Put the zSeries RHEL charge in perspective!
