Hmm? I suspect that I've missed something semantically in this.

Isn't that what VM is constantly doing, making any and all physicall
processors inside the box available to any dispatchable virtural
machine? Given a dual processor box, unless I explicitly restrict which
physical processors can see which virtual machines, any given guest goes
to which ever physical processor isn't currently working when it the
guest becomes dispatchable.

What type of scenerio would this be useful on zSeries hardware?  I
thought IBM indicates it to have a mean up time of 99.999%.
