We're in LPAR mode as well with Linux. Trying to cough up the $$$ for Z/VM
also. The distribution of SSH that I tried was on
http://s390.nichols.de/ssh/index.html.
Page says the archive included binaries compiled under OS/390 2.9, but I
sure as hell couldn't find them or figure out where they were in a
different archive.
If anyone is interested in trying to get Open SSH working under OS/390\Z/OS
and unix system services with GCC or some other open source C compiler (if
there is one) I think we could do something very beneficial to the OS/390
AND linux/390 Communities. Why IBM does not include open SSH as part of of
the base is beyond me.

Jim,
Yes, quiesce your Linux prior to doing your DFDSS backup of your CDL DASD.
As to SSH, I assume you are referencing the SG245944 Redbook, chapter
25? I know it's out there, I just haven't gotten to it yet. I'm trying
to find some free time to do similar automated tasks via SSH. I'll be
interested to hear from you if you beat me to implementing SSH on your
z/OS system (don't have z/VM).
Best regards,
Paul

Just so I can wave a 'see, these people say it needs to be done this way'
paper at my head sysprog....
I assume to use CDL and back up linux volumes with DFDSS 1) the volumes
need to be 'avaiable' to the OS/390 image doing the backup, and that 2)
Linux needs to be quiesced and halted in order to get a good backup of the
devices?
Lastly, has anoyne gotten Open SSH to work for OS/390? I'd like to use it
to have automation be able to logon to Linux etc, and do stuff but I want
encrypted shell. I've not been able to get the one S/390 port to work as
we don't have the IBM C compiler. Has anyone ported GCC to the Unix side
of OS/390 (Z/OS)? If so can the open SSH be made to work?
Thanks. Have a happy monday.
