Hello IBMVM and linux-390 lists, I was asked for help create 500 Linux servers on two LPARs for an internal performance test. With some help, we got this accomplished in three days. I thought it would be helpful to the community to write a paper on it. It's 22 pages - about 14 describing the process and 8 listing the code.
It's on the Web at http://www.vm.ibm.com/devpages/mikemac/ under the "Papers" section. In addition to the code being listed in the paper, I also made it available on the same Web page for convenience. Its not an official IBM Redpaper and has not been edited by a professional editor, but it has been run through a couple of times from a usability point of view, so I'm pretty sure all the parts are in working order. Thanks to Bill Norton, Senthil Bakthavachalam, Mike Wilkins and Jim Switzer of IBM for help with the paper, and thanks to Pam Christina of IBM for help in setting up the developer Web page. Any feedback will be appreciated. Enjoy.
