Hi,
asking for a prospective customer...some of you no doubt remember Hoplon
back in 2007 using a Cell processor blade in their z9...
The question: is anything similar possible with LinuxONE/z15? I'm
pretty sure it's not, but am curious. This prospect envisages using
LinuxONE for "gaming" type applications, and is interested in using
PCIe-based cards a la the Cell Broadband Engine used by Hoplon way back
when. If it's "not on", so be it, but if it were possible we will have
a net new Z client here in Oz. I did mention to them the NVMe drive
holder, but that didn't interest them. Perhaps this might work via an
RPQ...
best regards,
Peter
