About this project

This project provides a Nova virtualization driver for the z/VM hypervisor of IBM z Systems and IBM LinuxOne machines.

z/VM provides a highly secure and scalable enterprise cloud infrastructure and an environment for efficiently running multiple diverse critical applications on IBM z Systems and IBM LinuxONE with support for more virtual servers than any other platform in a single footprint. These z/VM virtual servers can run Linux, z/OS and more. The detailed information can be found at http://www.vm.ibm.com/

The KVM hypervisors on z Systems and LinuxONE machines are supported by separate Nova virtualization drivers:

  • KVM is supported by the standard libvirt/KVM driver in the openstack/nova project.
