I’m hosting a Webcast on Friday, September 11 (Thursday in some time zones) with Kenny Stine who will explain and demonstrate some of the new features in the latest IBM Z/LinuxONE Hardware Management Console (HMC) firmware including especially Dual Control. Dual Control allows you to assign a second administrator who must review and approve critical system operations before they’re executed. Several organizations have asked for this new security feature to enforce more rigorous operational discipline.
The Webcast will be live starting at 03:00 UTC on Friday, September 11. This Webcast time works best for those of you in Asia-Pacific, perhaps including cities such as Los Angeles and Honolulu. But you’re welcome to join even if it’s an odd hour in your time zone. There will be a recording and replay posted to the IBM Z/LinuxONE Community forum a few days after the Webcast. You can sign up to get invitations to this Webcast series using this link: https://ibm.biz/apwebcasts If you administer these servers or help secure them, this’ll be an informative Webcast. — — — — — Timothy Sipples Senior Architect and Cybersecurity Technical Leader IBM Z/LinuxONE, Asia-Pacific [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
