Question 3: A customer with AIX and IBM i based applications is considering a move to open source Linux
applications on x86 systems.
Which benefit should be highlighted for the customer to stay with the Power platform?
A. The Power Linux system is more powerful and will cost less than the x86 systems, thereby saving
costs.
B. The Power system they are running on can support the existing applications and the new Linux
applications at the same time.
C. The Power system uses Lx86 allowing Linux to run unchanged on Power.
D. The customer can recompile the AIX and IBM i applications and continue with Linux on their
existing Power System.
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
PowerVM Lx86 (Linux only) brings new benefits to customers and application providers who want the
reliability and flexibility of Power Systems in their Linux environment, yet use applications that have
not yet been ported to the platform. IBM PowerVM Lx86 allows most Linux x86 binaries to run
unchanged on POWER systems using translation software that translates x86.
