What is the status of multiple preferred guests on z990 machines?
iirc the z990 cannot run in basic mode, which was always a prereq for
multiple preferred guests. When running under PR/SM the MHPGF would be taken
by PR/SM. Running multiple preferred guests will require something like 2nd

Well if you are connecting to DB2 on big iron FROM the Linux guest, this
means you have TCP/IP connectivity to z/os and DB2. There is a component
that you need to install and configure on the desktop. Has this been done?
I've had DB2 connect 8.1 running for a while now, and while we didn't have
Friends,
we have 10 Risc boxes running AIX 433.
We are also VM users.
Would anyone mind to share the experience
of running LINUX under VM ?
The question is:
how many LINUX/vm-machines running under which system/box/processor ?
example: 5 Suse under z/VM 3.1 on a z900.

Hi list,
I have a C program which is start via BPXBATCH and run under USS ...
The program deal with read/write on files in HFS.
This program seems to be long and when i display the process the state is :
USER JOBNAME ASIDPID PPID STATE START CT_SECS
PBQOPC PG0US0A5
Hi list,
Do you have any recommandation to reduce the degration of performance when
in Sysplex a program make I/O HFS on the image which isn't the owner ?
Do you know if IBM have plan to implement real HFS Sharing ie with the CF
or others ... ?
Thanks,

Hi all,
We just installed SLES8 under z/VM V4R3 on z900-103 getting ready for
backup/recovery through TSM. We will access some 3590 in an 3494 Library
in SCSI mode through a FICON CHPID in FCP mode (zFCP).
What I've found so far is that the zfcp OCO module is already part of
SLES8 but from the
We are currently using WebLogic BEA Server along with the BEA certified
IBM JDK on zLinux. When we have problems with a web application and BEA
determines that it is a JDK vendor issue they tell us to contact our JDK
Vendor. We do not have an official support contract with IBM.
Evidently this is a
We were able to drive the 3590 using both the standard open source st module
as well as the IBM supplied IBMtape. The latter gives you control a lot of
the internal functions of the device including the cartridge loader. We
never used the developerworks supplied beast. I wonder if they are, in

Does IBM have to update the OCOs for Red Hat's kernel, or does Red Hat
have to fix their kernel package and re-release it? ;-)
Since the network adapter routines are now open-source, why not just compile
them along with your kernel?
Umm, I think you've sent this and your other question to the wrong mailing
list. This is for Linux/390, not Unix System Services.

isn't this supposed to change with 2.6? ie, there will only be s390 for
both 31 and 64 bit?

Vic,
Normally, it is IBM that has to produce new OCO modules for Red Hat and
SuSE. Now that the qeth source is available, you might just want to grab it
and compile it on the target system.

This is a very open-ended question, since you don't give us any information
about what the current systems are doing, and how busy they are. I can keep
an entire zSeries box busy doing C/C++ compiles with one Linux/390 system.
Or, you can have hundreds of mostly idle Linux/390 systems. The LCDS
I don't think anyone else is going to be able to provide support/maintenance

to say I'm amazed that the IBM sales rep passed up the opportunity to sell
that contract in the first place.

Hey, Red Hat back ported a bunch of stuff from 2.5 into 2.4, and there
wasn't any 2.4 source for that stuff. I think they could handle a

If you want to try the 2.4.9-43 module, you can do that by using the -f

This greatly depends upon what the RISC boxes are doing. If they tend
toward lower CPU Utilization, it is possible that they will all fit.
Their average and peak CPU Utilization will have to be measured.
