Yes, we are running z/VM version 5.3. I think we have all the required maintenance to run OSA-EXPRESS3 for z/VM 5.3 applied all. The following PTF are currently applied : UK37960, UK41398, UM32407, UM32565, UM32615, UM32140, UM32223, UM32239, UM32210, UM32497, UM32482 The only missing PTF that

emulating a z/OS DDNAME dataset concatenation in Linux

2009-10-01 Thread BISHOP, Peter
Hi, I've searched around and drawn a blank. What I'm wondering is whether there is a method in Linux that emulates a z/OS DDNAME's facility of allowing multiple datasets to be concatenated and effectively treated as one file. I looked at symbolic links, the "cat" command, variants of the "mount

It looks like I either used the wrong IP address for the DNS server when I was installing our RedHat test system, or there's a typo. In any case, DNS lookup isn't working. I can ping an IP address, and it works like it should, but when I try to ping a name, the ping fails. If this were a Suse syst

Hello all, We recently moved our working z/VM Linux LPAR from z9 to z10. After the move our Linux guest systems are unable to use a layer 2 VSWITCH device. Our Linux guest has 2 layer2 NIC interface eth0 and eth1 defined. NIC eth0 is used for IP and NIC eth1 only does LLC over Ethernet (no IP)

2009-10-01 Thread Richard Troth
But ... just to be clear, Mike ... there are two "console server" concepts in this thread. What has been discussed is LOG servers and collection of virtual console traffic, and then also CONTROL servers (terminal servers) where you get a command shell without the 3215 pain. Regarding log servers,

Hi list, Thanks for all the replies ... I had forgotten about the terminal server paper. That looks like a good approach as it is Linux-centric (not that the z/VM-centric solutions aren't good too). It's also good to hear that the next SLES release will be picking that up from s390 tools. I'm g

Our Unix people are used to using parted for preparing san dasd to be used, including creating lvm volumes. In the past, I used fdisk, setup the multipathing, then added the mpio device to lvm, I never using parted. Can parted be used for san dasd in the z environment? pros or cons, gotta's? Thanks
