REXEC / RSH
Does anyone have any experience running remote linux commands from MVS batch? I have found that MVS TSO has REXEC and RSH, but I am been unsuccessful executing a remote command on linux. I can use rexec/rsh from one linux system to another, but not from MVS. Any help on using these commands, or other suggestions on how to execute remote commands will be much appreciated.

PHP to DB2 connection
Has anyone been successful at connecting to DB2 from PHP? The research I have done indicates that I will need to compile php from source with DB2 support. I have found instructions on how to download the source, run the configure, and makefile, but I am running SUSE 10 which uses rpms. I am thinking that I need to create a new php rpm, and install it that way. I am not sure where to start creating my own rpm. Is there somewhere I could download a prepackaged php rmp with DB2 support for ZLinux? Am I even on the right track?

Datacenter Move
I am running SUSE 10 in an LPAR. We are in the process datacenter consolidation, and we will be moving all of our systems to a new datacenter. After the move, the only changes should be the ip address and he OSA device address. DASD addresses will all be the same. The steps that I am aware of to make the changes are: 1. Rename /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.oldaddress to /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.newaddress, and change addresses inside the file. 2. Rename /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.oldaddress to /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-qeth-bus-ccw-0.0.newaddress, and change device addresses and the ip address inside the file. I planned to pre-stage the new files in another directory. After IPLing at the new datacenter, I would move the new files to the appropriate directory and delete the old files from the HMC, and re-ipl. (Hopefully with ip connectivity) Is this all that I need to do? I just want to be sure that I am not missing anything.

Before we get really into this, I should refer you to your local LDAP administrator, if you are not that person. If you are your own local LDAP admin, well, read on, but also apply heavy does of google fu. LDAP is a, uh, non-intuitive world. - Does anyone have experience using the MVS ldap server for Z/linux authentication. I don't use the MVS LDAP server, but another product. However, from a linux client perspective, LDAP is LDAP, for the most bits. There's a few assumptions in this which you'll need to know, btw *) do you allow anonymous binds *) do you force, allow, or not support SSL and/or TLS *) What bind method do you use Simple, SASL-??? Here's a few sets of tests I use, in roughly ascending order of functionality. This is assuming non-anonymous binds, simple binding, and no SSL/TLS 1) Can you do a manual ldapsearch at all, with fully specified parameters? E.g. something like this: ldapsearch -x -h your_ldap_host -D bindname -W -b ldap_base \ -s one objectclass=* If this fails, examine your assumptions. This should always be able to made work, if your assumptions are correct. 2) Do an ldapsearch leaving default some of the search parameters, to insure you have them configured correctly on your client host. E.g: ldapsearch -x -s one objectclass=* If this fails, use a process of elimination to find and correct the saved search parameters (LDAP server hostnames, ldap base, ldap bind names and passwords, etc). Most of this data is in the file /etc/ldap.conf and the directory /etc/openldap 3) Does the client OS see account / group information? getent passwd ; getent group ; id some_ldap_account There's lots of possible failures here. First check /etc/nsswitch.conf, and insure it's setup for either files ldap or compat for everything you care to get from the LDAP server. If it's compat there also needs to be a compat_passwd ... and other compat_* entries. Next, look for SSL / TLS connection failures, if you're using them. In particular, check the client's certdb is correct. If your server supports non-SSL connections, try testing this non-SSL to positively confirm whether this is an SSL problem or not. Next, check for extra search filters in /etc/ldap.conf specified as part of an nss_base_*' statements. Try commenting these out as a test. Also look in /etc/ldap.conf for attribute mapping statements -- make sure these match what the server actually provides, as seen in the output of a manual ldapsearch. Finally, check the server's schema, and insure it's compatible. The server needs some form of RFC2307 schema, and of course, each account and group used with linux LDAP needs the proper objectclasses and attributes. (E.g. objectclass: posixaccount, uidNumber: 123456, loginShell: /bin/ksh, etc etc) 4) Can you su - to an LDAP served account Check pam settings, existence of shell, home directory 5) Last, can you ssh / telnet to an LDAP served account If not, check your pam settings and sshd config. - I am also trying to do ldap authentication in a php page. I have installed the PHP5-ldap package, but my php page is failing to make the ldap connection. I don't see any ldap related error in the apache log, so I am not sure what exactly is happening. Is it possible that the ldap errors are going to a different log file? Are there additional php packages that must be installed to make it work?

Daylight Savings Time adjustment
Over the weekend, my Slack/390 system fell back an hour for daylight savings time. How do I adjust when this happens? I think it's supposed to happen next week. Russell Jones ANPAC -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hall, Ken (GTS) Sent: Monday, October 27, 2008 11:23 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Zfcp.conf No, it's not necessary, if everything has been done properly. It has to do with when in the boot process the FCP devices are attached. If you ALLOW mkinitrd to put zfcp.conf in the initrd, those disks will be attached before the root filesystem is mounted. If you're okay with that, then it's fine. But if you want more flexibility, it might make more sense to remove zfcp.conf entirely before running mkinitrd. That way, NO FCP disks are attached before the root filesystem mounts, so it's all handled later in the boot process, and it all still works. There are a couple of gotchas with this. In versions prior to RHEL5.2, zfcpconf.sh was run out of /etc/rc.s/rc.sysinit. This resulted in a chicken-egg situation when multipath and/or LVM were used, and Red Hat went through several iterations trying to fix it, going all the way back to RHEL4.4. 5.2 triggers the script out of udev, which also nicely solves a race condition in rc.sysinit, where udev doesn't build the device nodes fast enough for LVM to catch them. Far as multipath goes, I don't see why changing the WWPN and Bus ID should have changed the identifier that's stored in the bindings file, but it's possible, since I forget how that's calculated. The simplest way to straighten it all out is to run multipath -F, remove all entries from the bindings file, and then run multipath, and let them rebuild. You might have to check to be sure you're mounting filesystems on the right places, though, if you're mounting by node. We're planning to standardize on either using LVM, or mount by label, to avoid this. Two other quick hints: The default location for the bindings file is in /var/lib. If /var is on a separate filesystem from root, the bindings file will be built in the wrong place, or not built at all, and /var will be mounted over it. The latest versions of device-mapper-multipath have a parameter in /etc/multipath.conf that allows you to specify the location of the bindings file. Earlier versions required it to be changed via command line parm, which, of course, required you do surgery on the init script. Finally, the version of mount that comes with RHEL5.2 uses a new scheme to prioritize mounts so that multipath devices and their components don't look like the same disk. This used to cause mount-by-label to fail. If you start getting mount failures, device busy, or duplicate device messages, check file /etc/blkid/blkid.tab. If you've added and removed LUNs, this file can contain residual data that confuses mount. Just delete it, and reboot, it will be rebuilt properly.

Re: Add LDAP support to PHP

Adding DASD
I am attempting to add another dasd volume to my Slack 390 system. I have done the steps below. It worked fine, but when I IPL'd it could not mount the new volume/filesystem. How do I bring the volume online at ipl time? 1. Bring new volume online to linux. echo add device range=322e /proc/dasd/devices 2. Figure out what device name was assigned to the volume. grep -i 322e /proc/dasd/devices 3. Format new DASD dasdfmt -b 4096 -p -f /dev/dasdb -l LNXD01 4. Create a partition on the new volume fdasd -a /dev/dasdb -l lnxd01 5. Put a file system on dasdb1 mke2fs -j -b 4096 /dev/dasdb1 6. Turn off forced fschks tune2fs -c0 -i0 /dev/dasdb1 7.

Secure Z Linux with LDAP
I am trying to set up linux to authenticate using the MVS ldap server. I am running Slack390 10.1. The articles I have read all describe using PAM and NSS together, but I don't believe that PAM can be easily used with Slackware. I have built and installed packages for sasl, openldap, and nss. Can I do ldap authentication with NSS alone? Is there a PAM build for Slackware? If anyone has any experience in this area, any guidance you can give would be appreciated.

Backup and Restore Strategies For Z/Linux
We are running z/Linux in an LPAR. It is a 1 volume system. We are currently using an MVS batch job to back up the volume while Linux is running. I know that this is not a good idea, and I would like to know how other shops handle backup and restore of their z/Linux systems. So far, our method has worked fine. At our disaster recovery exercises, we simply restore the volume with DFDSS and away we go. We would like the process to be as automated as possible. We could train the operators to shutdown Linux, run the backup, and then bring it back up, but we would like to avoid that if possible. We would also like to avoid bringing a tape drive online to Linux. We don't have the resources to dedicate a drive to Linux fulltime, and switching a drive between MVS and Linux during the batch cycle would difficult. I appreciate any suggestions.

Re: Printer help
I think that you are right about not having the lpd emulation set up. I found a How-To for setting up the cups-lpd helper server, but I have not gotten it to work. I tried starting it by /usr/lib/cups/daemon/cups-lpd start, and the process would hang and have to be killed. I also tried putting it in inetd by adding printer stream tcp nowait lp /usr/lib/cup/daemon/cups-lpd to /etc/inetd.conf. inetd seemed to restart okay, but I am still unable to do a lpr print and I am not sure if cups-lpd is actually running. Is there another approach that I should try?

Do you have CUPS set up to do lpd emulation on port 515 (I think)? If not, well, you can't print because nothing's listening to the lpd port. Cups by default uses IPP, which is 631, I think.

More up to date, etc. Just be aware that there's another lack in the both installers. The network information you supply during the install doesn't get propagated to the system being installed.

So, the simplest thing to do is put them all in one directory, just as the sample was created.

Re: New HOWTO: Cloning Red Hat Linux Running in an LPAR
I have been working through the HowTo on Cloning Red Hat Linux. I copied my Linux dasd volume using MVS. I brought the new volume online, and it showed up as dasdb. When I mount /dev/dasdb1, I seems to be mounting the boot partition and not the root file system. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Migrate Linux to different LPAR
We have recently installed CentOS Linux on our test Linux LPAR. We would like to migrate it to our production LPAR without having to do a new install. CentOS is intalled on a single dasd volume. We would like to simply copy the volume and IPL to the new volume on the new LPAR. The problem is that after we IPL on the new volume, Linux is still pointing to the file system on the old volume. This is the process that we followed to try to change the dasd volume that Linux uses. - change /etc/modprode.conf ochanged options dasd_mod dasd=322B to options dasd_mod dasd=322C - run mkinitrd to pick up the changes to modprobe.conf omkinitrd -v initrd-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL.img 2.6.9-42.0.2.EL othis showed the line Loading module dasd_mod with options dasd=322C so it seemed like changes were picked up. - run zipl command ozipl -V ocontents of zipl.conf looks like this: * [defaultboot] * default=linux * target=/boot/ * [linux] * image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL * ramdisk=/boot/initrd-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL.img * parameters=root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 Output from zipl contained the following messages: DASD device number..: 322b Preparing boot device: dasda (322b). Those messages lead me to believe that it is still pointing to the old dasd address. The plan was to make the dasd address changes, copy the volume, and then set the dasd address back to the original address on the old system, and IPL the new volume in the new LPAR. Is there something that I am missing? Is there and easier way to clone a linux system in a different LPAR? I appreciate any suggestions.
