Given that there'll be a main process which spawns child processes/threads per
transaction/user then using shell statements like:
export DDNAME_1=/pathname
And then in the program use the following to map the DD name to the pathname
for the open/fopen:
path=getenv("DDNAME_1")
fd=open(path, ..

For code running in the same process context, that's doable. If you need
multiple processes not necessarily derived from the same parent process to
access that data, you need to use a co

I'm in the initial stage of porting my TSO/CMS program (KICKS, see
kicksfortso.com) to linux, including zlinux. KICKS is mostly GCC code,
though not open source. Several people have recommended I post to this
list for some of my questions. So I've subscribed, and looked at some
past posts, and am r

Hi David.
Just as Alan Altmark points out, check the pricing model carefully first.
We run z/VM in two separate LPARs only using IFLs, which seems to be the
most cost-effective solution.
It works very well, we are just a few persons managing nearly 200 zLinux
servers here.
Be prepared for the que
