Welcome to nova-zvm driver's documentation!
System z is a family name used by IBM for all of its mainframe computers.
IBM System z are the direct descendants of System/360, announced in 1964,
and the System/370 from 1970s, and now includes the IBM System z9,
the IBM System z10 and the newer IBM zEnterprise. System z is famous for
its high availability and used in government, financial services, retail,
manufacturing, and just about every other industry.
z/VM is a hypervisor for the IBM System z platform that provides a highly
flexible test and production environment. z/VM offers a base for customers
who want to exploit IBM virtualization technology on one of the industry's
best-of- breed server environments, the IBM System z family.
zVM drivers, consist of a set of drivers/plugins for different OpenStack components,
enables OpenStack to communicate with z/VM hypervisor to manage z/VM system and
virtual machines running on the system.
xCAT is an open source scalable distributed computing management and provisioning
tool that provides a unified interface for hardware control, discovery,
