System z and z/VM
System z is a family name used by IBM for all of its mainframe computers. IBM System z, now includes the IBM System z9, the IBM System z10 and the newer IBM zEnterprise.
z/VM is an IBM VM hypervisor based on 64-bit z/Architecture, and now with multi-system virtualization and virtual server mobility. z/VM virtualization technology is designed to allow the capability for clients to run hundreds to thousands of Linux servers on a single mainframe running with other System z operating systems, such as z/OS, or as a large-scale inux-only enterprise server solution.
System z, as with all computing systems, is built on hardware components. Most of those components were introduced early in the mainframe era, and were developed over the years. As a user of z/VM, you will often need to interact with the hardware or speak in terms of the terminology prevalent in the mainframe world.
z/VM is a VM hypervisor based on 64-bit z/Architecture, and now with multi-system virtualization and virtual server mobilit. z/VM provides a wide range of networking and connectivity options and adheres to many of the industry.
