Hello list,

I am pleased to announce a new draft IBM Redbook on the Web at: 
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redpieces/abstracts/sg247493.html?Open

A number of sections have been updated or changed from the current version 
that is on http://linuxvm.org/present :
 -The z/VM sections are updated from v5.2 to 5.4.
 -The Novell/Suse Linux sections are updated from SLES 10 vanilla to SLES 
10 SP2.
 -The Linux system that is cloned is called "golden image" instead of 
"master image".
 -The controller and the golden image are installed onto two separate user 
IDs, not on the same user ID.
 -The clone.sh script is adapted to require a "from" (source) user ID, to 
copy the 100 and 101 minidisks, and the code is hopefully cleaner.
 -The file system layout recommends two 3390-3s (100 and 101) instead of 
just one (100) and implements logical volumes for more adaptable file 
systems.
 -A section was added on Cooperative Memory Management - CMM1.

The release of this book also removes some sections to help expedite 
getting it out the door:
 -The DAZL application has been removed.
 -The Backup and Restore chapter has been removed.

Thanks to all who helped make this possible, especially, Lydia Parziale, 
Roy Costa and Marian Gasparovic of IBM's ITSO and Mark Post of Novell. 
Also, Brad Hinson of Red Hat did most of the work updating a counterpart 
RHEL 5.2 book which is hopefully not far behind (we're currently running 
one more usability test on it).

Enjoy.  Feedback is welcome.
