Robert, I tested Suse 7.2, Red Hat 7 and Debian 3.01 under VM/ESA 2.4.0 using G3 (MP2003), G4 (9672RB5 and RY5) and G5(MP3000) without any problem. Suse seens to be more friendly, but if you know Linux, I recomend Debian. You have no company asking $$$ to you as maintenance fee. Good luck Robert

I believe I am correct in saying that any supported version of VM (ESA 2.4 or higher) and any zSeries processor will work just fine. A 9672 is not zSeries, it's a S390 type. This is a 32bit only processor, of course. At this point in time and going into the future, I would certainly recommend a

I have not done an extensive comparison between using Linux on ZSeries and using UML, but from the experiments I have done with e.g. AFS, one thing stands out very clearly: Linux on zSeries (under VM) provides you with a whole range of resource management tools that are not available under UML. In

Dunno if UML has been "ported" to zSeries or not. That would clinch it. Most of us feel the same as you do. Personally, UML is a great project. But z/VM offers things that are significant in the most positive ways, things that UML just cannot do, even if it has been ported: hypersockets, no
