So you can share your CPs from non-Linux-only partitions with your Linux-only partition, rather than buying a new CPU.

No. > or > (CP AND (zIIP OR zAAP)) XOR ICF XOR IFL Yes. >(But then what would make the IFL > choice non-Linux-only?) I'm not sure I understand your question. IFLs are available to both kinds of partitions. But regardless of the type of partition, you cannot mix IFLs with other processor types within a single partition.
