Ralph Noll asked about ethernet adapters and the dmz.
It did take a long time to convince security to allow the same OSA adapter
to be used on both sides of the dmz. Fortunately for us the zOS folks who
support HOD and Websphere had already discussed the issues with the network
and security folks.
If you already are paying for TSM on z/OS and can afford to buy another
standard engine processor every so often as the CPU requirement
increases, then you already have your answer. It's got the bells and
whistles you want, and silo integration via your standard tape

As part of a $312 million infrastructure refresh project, Centrelink will migrate at
least 450 Windows servers over to Linux and join the small number of enterprises
running the open source operating system on the mainframe.
Have you read IBM's paper (May 2002) on zVM security and their commitment to
it?

An additional though of zVM vs LPAR -
Assuming the use of IEEE 802.1q VLANIDs (tagging), then for LPAR mode each
LPAR has *full* access to the shared OSA and associated LAN. But for zVM
(via a VSWITCH) you can control which Guest has access to a list of VLANIDs
(or ALL).

Does anyone besides me see disaster looming with this statement?
And we want to move stuff - because the number of our Solaris boxes are
running at 5 to 10 percent utilization - onto smaller Intel boxes. Some of
the other stuff is running 80 to 90 percent of a farm of 880s, so we'd like
to pick
