the use of zVM guests on a zSeries system can provide a z/OS environment for each developer in an organization and ***avoid wasting time for off shift machine time on test LPARs***.

avoid ... / changed to save ...

save time by not having to perform test LPARs with the machine shut down during a shift / during off-shift machine time

changing *avoid wasting time* to *save time*

What a cocked up sentence!! I think this is what it means though.
