Subject: virtual machine vs lpar
It looks like we are almost to the point of implementing
a production linux image which will be an oracle back-end
for a public-access webserver. Naturally the concept of
multiple virtual machines on a single physical machine is
a new concept for the network/security/sysadmin types.
They are used to a physical tangible box that you can put
in a close and lock the door.
There is some concern expressed by these people about
information `leakage' between virtual machines. My boss
has proposed separate lpars instead to `harden the walls'.
I desperately want to talk him out of this course of action.
What I need is some published verbiage discussing the
`boundaries' between virtual machines and citations (if
any) where multiple lpars running z/vm) are preferable
over a a single lpar running z/vm (disregarding any
performance aspects).
Thanks,
Greg Smith
