The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
I suspect you might be reading a bit too much into it.
IBM would be foolish to remove the VMWare version many folks use it, however
we all know IBM has been foolish in the past too.
Bottom line is with IBM, if they don't explicitly state it, it is likely not
a factor. This may be the exception but I'll wait to see.

Subject: RE: HMC x86 support
Jim,
In a round about way the VMWARE version was mentioned in that announcement.
<snip>
From 2019, HMC updates will only support PowerR-based (7063) HMC appliances.
</snip>
Is the vmware version Power based? Does it run on 7063 HMC appliances?
For that matter, does an 'lpar' on an existing Power 8 count as a 7063 HMC
appliance?
