Wouldn't the code needed to support a zIIP or zAAP have to be added to Linux and available to all? I would think that this is a 'trade secret' for IBM and one they would prefer to control/license as they are with zIIP for z/OS workloads (zAAP appears to be a little more generic).
Ken Porowski -----Original Message----- Ted MacNEIL > can't see what would prevent a mix of IFL+n*zAAP+m*zIIP LPAR from running linux How about: it's not supported -- there is no code in zLINUX to (a) recognise zAAPs & zIIPs, and (b) run anything on it. >(unless, again, there is too much stuff stripped from the zAAPs & zIIPs >that would prevent it from running general purpose threads). There is -- that's the whole point. Not IPLable. Only designed for specific purposes under z/OS -- no othe zSoftWare supports them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
