Re: Question about BFS in 5.4
I am having a bit of trouble getting started in setting up SSLSERV on zVM 5.4. Having never used zVM BFS before, it has become a real pain to set up GSKADMIN for use my SSLSERV. There is no SSLSERV support available yet for z/VM 5.4. The support should be available in another week or so. That said, GSKADMIN's profile *should* have mounted /../VMBFS:VMSYS:GSKSSLDB/ at /etc/gskadm/. Did someone mess with the PROFILE EXEC? Around line 39 you should see _BFS_fpool_root_ = 'VMSYS' _BFS_fspace_root_ = 'ROOT' _BFS_fspace_gskssldb_ = 'GSKSSLDB' _BFS_subdir_gskssldb_ = '/etc/gskadm/' You should be able to do key management from GSKADMIN even though the SSL server itself (SSLSERV) is not yet operational. Feel free to open a PMR.

I'm not really an expert at this, but I think your OPENVM MOUNT /../VMBFS:VMSYS:GSKSSLDB/ /etc/ should be OPENVM MOUNT /../VMBFS:VMSYS:GSKSSLDB/ /etc Peter -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Craig Dudley Sent: December 4, 2008 12:53 To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Question about BFS in 5.4 Hi, I am having a bit of trouble getting started in setting up SSLSERV on zVM 5.4.

Is the SSL server for 5.4 GA now? I don't see it on IBMLink.
