Also, if the FICON CHPID used for the FCTC goes to a FICON Switch/Director, you can create a FCTC using only a single CHPID to connect multiple LPARs on the same CEC together. The CHPID will act as both the sender and receiver with the FCTC frames going to the switch and back on the same path.

VM to zLinux Remote Execution

I'm trying to remotely execute a command with CMS as the client and SLES 11 SP 1 as the server. All documentation I've found so far, shows how to do it from Linux to VM. Apparently the problem is, TCPIP for VM only has the unsecured REXEC client and SLES 11 only has a secured sshd. I've

Just a question: If the CMS user and the zLinux are running on the same box, why not use a VM VLAN with a separate IP address and NIC than one used by the Outside World? That way, wouldn't it be possible for REXEC on zLinux to only LISTEN on the given IP address and so be safe as well? Just

I'm not too up on zLinux because we don't have it or z/VM. But doesn't zLinux have support for the virtual reader? Could you spool a reader file to your zLinux instance's virtual reader and have some shell script on zLinux execute it? Kind of like how I remember CMSBATCH working back when I ran

That would have been a fall back solution. Without spending money for a ssh client, downgrading to REXECD seems like a workable solution. Network wise, I'm on hipersockets, so the risk of the traffic being sniffed should be minimal(right?) And as it is locked down to specified hosts any

Its not unprotected presuming you have a zvm ESM password protecting your console access using authenticated users. It does work remotely too provided you have a vm operations type product. Of course send should be protected and the ID that is secondary should be restricted as well. Marcy.
