Re: Bacula + tape size
Our VTS is B20 , 3952 drives. We use Bacula from about 1,5 year and it works fine. We tested backup to disk and from disk to tape but still problem is amount of tapes that autochanger have to use. That why we would like to configure bigger tapes. In z/VM can we emulate 3490e cartridges only? I know that in z/OS we can define bigger tapes with use of Data Class par ameter. But how to configure it in z/VM? Best regards, Tomasz Westrych

Restoring from DFDSS backup from tape
Hi, We have backed up one of our Linux guest to tape track by track (Physical) using DFDSS. Now we want to RESTORE the guest from the tape. Anyone know the control cards necessary to make this happen with DFDSS?

Re: Linux command
Hi Rob, Thanks for the information. I am documenting our environment and needed to know the IP of the HiperSockets Interface. I know I could be sure that this would be the correct information since we use this normally. Not being a Linux administrator I found this command and I figure it would be a way to at least display the information I needed.

z/Linux Network Monitor
We moved some SNA applications from unix servers to z/Linux. Now are running with Communications Server for Linux, we successfuly implemented Enterprise Extended. But we are looking for some Network Monitor. We find some to monitor TCPIP, but none for SNA. Does anybody know any? Thanks. Claudio Testore
What people are doing
Hi Are you seeing a fair number of shops running Oracle on Linux on Z and if so have the results been favorable? The question comes about because My management is hearing that when people move servers over to the Z under Linux they are mostly moving servers that have very little usage already and that databases like Oracle are staying put on the other platforms such as Solaris in my case, giving them the impression that the z/Linux cannot handle this. I know there are some situations where this may be true but I do not believe on a whole this is necessarily true. What do you think! Thanks, Terry
