We have a little rexx exec we run in the morning to check the VM guests, It is divided up between system ID's and the layer 2 and layer 3 linux guests.
Small example: 'MSG' '*' 'CKUSERID STARTING ' /* CKUSERID STARTING */ 'MSG' '*' 'SYSTEM IDS ' /* SYSTEM IDS */ 'Q ' 'DISKACNT ' /* */ 'Q ' 'DTCVSW1 ' /* */ 'Q ' 'DTCVSW2 ' /* */ 'MSG' '*' 'LAYER 2 GUEST IDS ' /* GUEST IDS */ 'Q ' 'NMDTOR04 ' /* */ 'Q ' 'NMDPOR02 ' /* */ 'Q ' 'TDCPNT01 ' /* */ 'Q ' 'TDCPNT02 ' /* */ 'MSG' '*' 'LAYER 3 GUEST IDS ' /* GUEST IDS */ 'Q ' 'DFNORRUL ' /* */ 'Q ' 'DFNORSTG ' /* */ 'Q ' 'DFNORSTO ' /* */ Russell Gendreau -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Dave Jones Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2009 9:31 AM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Re: How to tell how many linux running on z/VM? 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.
