    Support for hosts using active memory sharing is added on PowerVC 1.4.3
    You can manage an HMC host that has a shared memory pool. However, PowerVC does not support deploying or importing a virtual machine that uses shared memory.
    Thanks again for this suggestion!

    I think this request should be considered. I myself ordered our Power8 with AMS. So if this is not supported, its just a waste of money? What option do I have?

    Thanks

    Thank you for the request. At this point in time, we have decided to not support AMS within PowerVC--if we see large interest from the field, we can certainly re-evaluate this request.
