For those interested. We have a project to replace xcat/smapi with a
full backend for openstack on z/vm as part of our zpro offering. The
objective is for a user of openstack to have control over a z/vm service
the same as their vmware service.
Since our API already includes any or none of VMSecure, RACF, dirmaint,
and specifically eliminates the need for SMAPI, I'm hoping our solution
will simplify your environment immensely.

Yes, xCAT only works "out of the box" with DIRMAINT/SMAPI/RACF.....other 3rd
party products would probably have to be configured a bit.

Yes, we installed xCAT.
But got problem due to we have VMSecure and CA have not implemented
all API:s And there we are now, not usable yet at least.

Tore, has your group looked into the xCAT/OpenStack support that now
comes with z/VM 6.3? Or did you just roll your own there?
Have a good one.

OpenStack is lots of stuff.
And a big difference just as Mark says, in some parts.
Otherwise you can make it work.
We have a beta version implementing openStack API (only some yet) communicating
via SMSG.
For this you need only one Linux server per SSI.
And no, there is no offering from RedHat, we had to code that part (API via
SMSG) ourselves.
But dashboard for example and most other components is possible to download and
setup.

Hi
Is there any difference running a openstack in Linux running on x86
and open stack on zVM ?
As far as the interfaces to the hypervisor(s) go, yes. Other than that, there
shouldn't be. I haven't heard of Red Hat offering their OpenStack product on z
Systems, however.
