This sounds very nice but: 1. will this work when using SAF (I don't think so)? 2. how do I set this up?

This user can then "take control" of the Linux virtual machine console by using the CP SEND command. You can also dynamically become a virtual machine's secuser using the SET SECUSER command. You can use the PIPE STARMSG stage to trap the IUCV responses from Linux guests and respond accordingly.

For shutdown, you have to roll your own. We have a SHUTDOWN EXEC on OPERATOR that starts an orderly shutdown of assorted service machines and Linux guests, in combination with a special userid called AUTOSHUT. > -----Original Message----- > From: Lionel Dyck [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 10:11 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Managing Linux guests under z/VM > > When running a penguin farm under z/VM what tools can one use to: > > 1. schedule the startup of the guests after a z/VM IPL? > > 2. schedule an orderly, clean, shutdown of all guests for a planned z/VM > IPL? > > thx > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > Lionel B.
