um maybe the misinformed dude was referring to some piece of Oracle, like a client, that doesn't run on linux for System z anyway? His response falls into the frightfully scary department and sounds like he needs a visit to the woodshed David

This strikes me as odd, considering that Oracle is encouraging their z/OS customers to move to mainframe Linux. Does Oracle expect them to run Linux in an LPAR, or run unsupported under z/VM? Or is this guy all wet?
