Thanks Nigel -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael MacIsaac Sent: Monday, October 29, 2007 2:08 PM To: LINUX-390@vm.marist.edu Subject: Draft Redpaper: "z/VM and Linux on IBM System z: Implementing a Shared Root File System"
Hello all "linux-390" and "ibmvm"ers, A draft Redpaper "Sharing and maintaining Linux under z/VM" is now up on http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpieces/abstracts/redp4322.html?Open Here is the abstract: "Large operating systems, such as z/OS(r), have, for several decades, leveraged shared file structures. The benefits are reduced disk space, simplified maintenance and simplified systems management. This Redpaper describes how to create a Linux(r) solution with shared file systems on IBM(r) System z? hardware (the mainframe) running under z/VM(r). It also describes a maintenance system where the same Linux image exists on a test, maintenance and gold virtual servers. This redpaper is based on z/VM 5.3 and SLES 10." The associated tar file of sample scripts and EXECs should be on ftp://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/REDP4322 (It seems that directory has not yet been created, but should be soon.) Any feedback off-list (or on-list) would be appreciated.
