Mark,

could you please confirm that, contrary to VMWare, zVM on an IBM mainframe is supported as production platform?
We have installed Oracle9i on zLinux (SUSE SLES8) running as a virtual machine under zVM and just downloaded 10g to be installed in another zLinux under zVM. For now, it is only in a test environment for a proof of concept, but there is already pressure from some of our customers to have their production systems migrated to this platform.
