Hi Jim, We have no documentation dedicated to migrations from z/VM to KVM. Are there any particular issues that we could address in z/VM to keep the customer happy, or is the decision to move to KVM already a done deal?
So, if you want to get started, it is important to verify that KVM provides all pieces required in the current z/VM based installation. There is a wide variety of solutions in the open source ecosystem to address customers' needs, but it is also easy to get lost in the selection - KVM in the Linux distributions is a starting point, but usually no integrated solution with all bells and whistles. You can find our official documentation on KVM at https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/linuxonibm/liaaf/lnz_r_kvm_base.html. Specifically, check the "KVM Virtual Server Management" document.
