Yes, and that's why I said you can't use HiperSockets to connect LPARs in 
different zones:  No firewall.  Any time data transits to a different 
zone, it goes thru a firewall.  It is the firewalls that create the zones.

Note that "firewall" and "packet filter" are not the same.  A host may 
have a resident IPS/IDS solution, but it isn't a firewall.  Firewalls are 
stand-alone devices.

Thanks a bunch Rich for the information! I think the Firewall guys think
if we use a Hipersocket than you do not need the Firewall rules. But I
told them that even if Hipersockets are used you would still need
Firewall rules if required.

Vswitch is internal to CP, hipersockets makes most sense to move data

Using hipersockets requires a trip out of the VM system (even if it's

Yes, just attach a hipersocket triplet to each Linux guest in each of 
the LPARs.  Configure the hsi interfaces appropriately and you're off to

But before you do that, you need to check with the network security folks. 
 It is unlikely that they will permit an app server and a db server to be 
in the same security zone (i.e. connected without a firewall).  But, 
either way, it's their call.

With EXPORTONLY NO (the default), then anyone can mount anything. 
Consequently, the export list consists the items in the EXPORT list *and* 
those things that have been previously mounted.   Specify EXPORTONLY YES.

That said, I could be persuaded that when DUMPMOUNT NO is specified, the 
export lists consists only of those items in the EXPORT list, if any.

/proc/cpuinfo indicates that it is already running with two processors.  
The 'q v cpus' command you issued was for the virtual machine that you

1) What does "Alternate" indicate?
and
2) How do i get that 2nd processor to be "active" if it is not 
already.. i.e. showing up under q v cpus and active under z/Linux?
z/Linux shows two virtual CPUs under /sys/devices/system/cpu and 
/proc/cpuinfo displays:

vendor_id   : IBM/S390
# processors: 2
bogomips per cpu: 6868.00
features : esan3 zarch stfle msa ldisp eimm dfp
processor 0: version = FF,  identification = 0ECDEE,  machine = 2094
processor 1: version = FF,  identification = 0ECDEE,  machine = 2094
Thanks in advance.

Hi

Currently we use Hipersockets between on z/OS LPARS and our z/Linux 
guests. This works great. The question I have is can Hipersockets be 
used to go from one z/Linux running on one z/VM LPAR to another? 
Currently we us VSWITCHES with OSA to communicate between z/Linux guests.

Yes, just attach a hipersocket triplet to each Linux guest in each of 
the LPARs.  Configure the hsi interfaces appropriately and you're off to 
the races.

Hi

 

Currently we use Hipersockets between on z/OS LPARS and our z/Linux
guests. This works great. The question I have is can Hipersockets be
used to go from one z/Linux running on one z/VM LPAR to another?
Currently we us VSWITCHES with OSA to communicate between z/Linux
guests.

Re: NFS mount point display

2010-04-29 Thread Gentry, Stephen
Tried that earlier, it still shows the mount points.
>From what I gather, there are at least 3 options for  showmount, the are
e, a, d
The DUMPMOUNT NO does block a and d  but not e
Further, since e stands for export, I looked at the EXPORT parameter but
there wasn't anything I could code to block it from being displayed.

Specify DUMPMOUNT NO in the VMNFS CONFIG file.

NFS mount point display

2010-04-29 Thread Gentry, Stephen
We recently had a network audit reveal the names of the mount points on
our VM system (z/VM 5.4).  The command they use is

showmount  -e  ip.address

It showed all the mount points I have defined to NFS on VM.

Is there a way to prevent these mount points from being displayed when
showmount is issued?

Thanks

Steve
