'Output data' ?? Do you mean something analogous to a printed report? That is, an app runs on Linux that does some manipulation of DB2 data on that Linux, generates a report and that report needs to get to z/OS to be included in z/OS processing? Or am I completely off base? Because if tha

Hi Marcy, I've built it as an rpm for s390x for 11SP2 and it build cleanly without problems. I just need to sign them properly so people can verify they are not tampered with and a place to get them publicly accessable. Cheers, Peter Peter Linnell SUSE Linux Technical Specialist Tel: 1-415

Thanks for the plug John. I'll also point out that if you are using Co:Z Launcher to pipe data between Linux files/applications and z/OS that you also have the option to send the data over a raw socket rather than within the ssh connection. If you have a secure network, like hipersockets between

You sure can share the data. Perhaps the simplest way is to use NFS. I have successfully done a MOUNT of a Linux subdirectory on a z/OS system. Now, it can get a bit "hairy" to do it correctly. First, you must use NFS on the Linux system to "export" the subdirectory. You must be running the NFS

Ah. I see your point. I'm only on a few Linux instances at present, so one branch per instance is not a large concern. I may need to rethink if I end up on a lot of instances. Or I'll just keep most files in a common NFS mounted subdirectory and use git to source control the contents of that sin
