For what it's worth the vast majority of Linux environments are using
z/VM. I'm curious about what you don't agree with.
Running Linux in an LPAR is certainly an option for you and one that you
are free to use. It certainly will let you run Linux on the mainframe
for a POC without any additional cost. But the flexibility of running
Linux with z/VM is very attractive (and useful!)

Hi,
We are starting up a POC project of DB2 Connect on zLinux and we are busy describing the project's scope and aim.
So we can go natively in a LPAR or under VM (or both of course).
Can you route me to some doc or provide us with some pointers about the pro's & con's in this LPAR-vs-VM issue?
And please of a lot of more & higher quality than the very basic

(I don't agree at all with:
The discussion of “why VM” is in the FAQ, http://www.marist.edu/linuxvm/faq.html, and it should be referenced before rehashing old discussions.)
