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.
