2. |  DB2 10 for Linux on System z Using z/VM v6.2, Single System Image Clusters and Live Guest Relocation By: Lydia Parziale; Dan Davenport; Eduardo Kienetz; Tito Ogando; Manoj Srinivasan Pattabhiraman; Srivatsan Venkatesan Publisher: IBM Redbooks Publication Date: 03-NOV-2012 Insert Date: 12-NOV-2012 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: DB2 10 for Linux on System z Using z/VM v6.2, Single System Image Clusters and Live Guest Relocation IBM® z/VM® 6.2 introduced significant changes to z/VM
with a multi-system clustering technology that allows up to four
z/VM instances in a single system image (SSI) cluster. This
technology is important because it offers you an attractive
alternative to vertical growth by adding new z/VM systems. In the
past, this capability required duplicate efforts to install,
maintain, and manage each system. With SSI, these duplicate efforts
are reduced or eliminated.
Support for live guest relocation (LGR) allows you to move Linux
virtual servers without disrupting your business or incurring loss
