The biggest one I would warn you about is to only have the DASD Linux needs defined to the LPAR. If you have the Linux LPAR able to access all the DASD, one mistake could wipe out one or more of the volumes used by z/OS. > Any > shop have the same configuration? Almost all of them do. Very few shops have only Linux LPARs defined. (Usually only the smallest and the largest sites.) > By the way, any reference/red book teach > how to setup and tuning? See above. I foresee lots of reading being needed.
