Well, simple for you, Bill, with your mumble, mumble years of VM
experience....:-) You already know that the ESAxxxx machines are
Velocity products, FTPSERVE, PORTMAP, SMTP, etc. are part of the VM
TCP/IP stack, and so forth. That knowledge may not be available to folks
just now getting their feet wet in a VM environment.
That's why I suggested the TRACK approach....it's an explicit and
deterministic method for identifying Linux guests.
Have a good one.

It is pretty easy to pick out the 6 LINUX guests running on my sandbox
system

How to tell how many linux running on z/VM?
I was asked to find out how many linux guests are running on our z/VM?
the cp commands:Q N is not very suitable for this question.
What is the better way?
