Is there a way to get the VM 5.2 user ID or the z series LPAR name under Linux?
What I would like to do is use this to determine the hostname and the IP
address of the Linux system, instead of having to change it in each one.

I love the command, it includes the names of all vm's using a vswitch and the
ip info.

If you already have a DHCP server on the LAN segment (even if not on
VM),
add the MAC address/IP info to that server instead. (I haven't seen
any
dhcpd config options to limit the MAC addresses it will serve.)
One easy way (at least with dhcp3) is to define a group, and put the MAC
addresses
Modern DHCP servers don't require the bit reversal evil any longer. It was
much more of a big deal for token-ring adapters than Ethernet, anyway. Use
the canonical form everywhere -- it's Just Right.
It would be interesting if VM set the default MAC prefix to one of the
user-managed spaces as the
