Minidisks and DASD model 3/9

2009-01-29 Thread עופר ברוך
Hi all, We just bought some dasd storage specifically for z/VM and for the z/Linux underneath. This is the time to decide what model to use 3/9/27… Originally I thought the bigger the better. We are using DIRMAINT to manage dasd space and now I am not sure what is the best approach. Here

Hi, Horst. Yes, that's a good approach and it does work well. The main problem is that many sites will not allow access to the HMC by mere mortal system programmers. :-) I believe IBM is working on a piece of Linux software that will allow ASCII (SSH) logons to z/VM Linux guests that do not
