>If so, how are you running it? standalone? under zos? etc? Most are using z/VM, but some of the biggest in the world run in LPARs to avoid the (minimal) overhead. >How is installation and maintenance of linux and system while running linux on >mainframe? Totally different from anything you're used to as a mainframe person, but totally familar to a midrange Linux admin. >Are there any good redbooks or other documentation on installing and running >linux on the mainframe? http://wiki.linuxvm.org/wiki/Relevant_IBM_Redbooks http://linuxvm.org/redbooks.html http://linuxvm.org/Present/ >Are there any training course on doing this? IBM has some, but you can get the equivalent of that and a lot more at SHARE (coming to Boston in August) or IBM's Technical University (formerly System z Expo, coming to Boston in October) or WAVV (which just concluded for this year).
