Kevin,
does "MQ" mean "WebSphere MQ"?
We are working with WebSphere MQ on SUSE for several years and it works fine.

We use RHEL and if I remember correctly (I don't work on the zLinux project
directly) it was to do with RHEL compatibility with some other software at the
time we started (several years ago). Maybe it was MQ, although not sure. If it
is important I can ask the folks that do work on it.

Mark is right in that he is much more active in this forum an RH even
though Brad does pop in sometimes. Not sure that this is a deciding
factor or not...I'm sure there are more important factors. Having said
that, I'm sure Mark has helped MANY people in this list.

No, it doesn't.
We do use MQ "only" and have our own CICS adapters to directly manipulate the
queues. From talking to one of the zLinux developers this morning, he is not
sure he remembers the exact reasons. Message Broker springs to mind because we

Kevin,
what's exactly is your problem? As I told we are working with WebSphere MQ
without any problems on SLES10 and it worked before on SLES8 (we did not test
it on SLES9). Possibly your own CICS adapters interfere with some other stuff
on SUSE, which is not installed on RH.

Hubert,
We don't have a problem...I was only replying to an inquiry from Robert Nix
where he asked "what distro people used and why". What I was saying was some
backup to "why" we use RHEL.
Our CICS adapters are totally separate from the zLinux code (which runs under
z/VM), so no interference

Easy, easy... this isn't IBM-MAIN or LKML. Play nice.

Probably has to do with the recent (and IMHO not beneficial) renaming of
MQ to be part of the Websphere megalith. Not everyone got the memo on

David,
I didn't think that people weren't playing nice. But, your observation
about the megalith is right on. We don't use Websphere, per se, here but
we do use MQ Series queues and adapters running under CICS to manipulate
the queues. I'm not sure why Hubert thought I had a problem, maybe
didn't

Hi Hubert,
I'm not sure that we even remember the exact issue .
However, once we settled on RHEL (based on those original issues which would
have been 2 to 2.5 years ago), we settled on RHEL and are now invested in it.
Probably too hard to change now even if we wanted to!

Hi,
We are trying to add another OSA LCS Ethernet on our z/9 z/Linux LPAR (SLES 10

Looking at some PDFs I see that it say that we only have to do the following:

One way to to fix it is to use your rescue system to mount the amnesiac

Does anyone have full sudo?
Then you could just

passwd

Miguel,
For things like this VM is the Bomb! Just make the root drive from the
locked server
available for a different Lunix guest, (making sure the one with the
locked out root
account is down) and boot the 2nd guest. Then mount the new disk as /mnt
and cd /mnt/etc
Then edit the /mnt/etc/shadow
Hmm, no responses?

Does Centos support the ASCII emulator on the HMC of the z9BC? If so,
then maybe you could use that as your terminal for entry.

While there is no version 5 of Centos, you may or may not have luck
trying to boot the Centos 4.6 installer. (along with what Brad Hinson

Would it be the wrong time to suggest that, once you have the system
installed, up and running, nobody should ever log in as root, except in dire
or unavoidable circumstances.
Once you have the system, give your system administration group sudo all
privs. Then just don't log into root at all. This
I am reposting to make sure this went out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
