Samba
I have a quick question. Is anyone using Samba running under linux on the zSeries? If so, what's the number of clients you have connecting and the performance of the box? Reason - We have a large Novell server having some scalability issues and we are trying to look at options. Currently we have 10,000+ connections and 4 TB of DASD being utilized by this box, so any solution needs to be scalable and reliable. Thanks, Brad Brewer Humana Inc.

Supporting zLinux
Just a couple of quick questions. Does anyone use any 3rd party tool,like OmegaMon, to monitor zlinux? Has anyone every tried to implement CA's eTrust ACF2 Security for zLinux? Has anyone tried doing volume level backups using FDR or DFSMS? Do companies have a production control area monitoring the monitor? Or do you page when alerts happen? Reason for questions. We are trying to build a case for the use of zLinux in our shop. Management wants to be assured that all the pieces are there before they will go forward. Thus the fact finding mission.
