OK, I'll try to stop making Linux run like MVS . I'll try to do it "the Linux way" instead. But, if any of our MVS programmers ever start doing Linux development, I know these questions will be raised. Along with "where is Endevor?" . I am fairly sure that our VB developers will not have this conce

The packaging of SuSE RPM's (SLES7 particularly) is a little different than RedHat, mainly in how the INIT process is handled, logfiles, and (possibly) that SuSE used inetd vs. xinetd. I've had to do major surgery on RPM's to make them build properly on SLES7. It doesn't help that packagers rou

For a while we've been bothered by a problem on our SLES7 systems where daemons don't start at boot time. We thought it was related to the products themselves, but recently I noticed that it almost always seemed to be the LAST daemon in the list that didn't start. I've looked into it, and I th

with the timer patch applied, the cpu overhead is almost 0. Here we give each project one or more linux. They do whatever they like with it, in fact we give them root authority. They really like this freedom and if they screw something up, it's their fault. -Original Message- From: M

You could code up a shell/perl script called "make" which takes the arguments of the real make, sticks them in an array or something, and calls the real make for each item in the array 5 at a time or whatever till it's done. Hrm, maybe I just ported JES to Linux Uh Oh. Jay Brenneman

That's a possibility. I can then control the "evil" ones by changing their VM dispatching priority. My only concern is the extra overhead of running multiple Linux images just for that purpose. I.e. the VM overhead for multiple users and the extra CPU burnt by the Linux images themselves that would

The 'standard' way is to build a makefile for the compiles, and run make. Another suggestion, and I'm new at this, is to code a quicky Rexx (Regina) script. You should be able to do the compiles, check return codes, and e-mail yourself the results. At least this is the kind of thing I do on VM wh

Using a make file to script the compiles that are required will help serialize a user's compilations. You can use a flag to increase levels of parallelism if required. You can do this to put them into the background: make -f >& make.log & To get a bitmore fancy, use the nice command to adjust th

OK, so I have a corrupted mindset, coming from MVS . But suppose that I want to compile a LOT of programs. In MVS, I code up some JCL and submit it to run later. When it completes, I get a notify to my TSO id and look at the output in SDSF. I repeat this for however many compiles that I want to do.
