FYI, we have recently produced a document: "IBM Ported Tools OpenSSH Quick Install Guide" http://dovetail.com/docs/pt-quick-inst/index.html (html and downloadable PDF available)
This guide is designed to help systems programmers to quickly install, configure, and tune OpenSSH on z/OS so as to exploit hardware acceleration, which can reduce the CPU consumption by over 50%. A subset of this information is also available in our recent SHARE presentation: https://share.confex.com/share/122/webprogram/Session14787.html We would appreciate any comments or feedback on this material, which we will use to improve it for the community. Either send emails to [email protected] or use our community forum at http://dovetail.com/form Kirk Wolf Dovetailed Technologies http://dovetail.com On Wed, May 21, 2014 at 3:06 AM, Mainframe Mainframe < [email protected]> wrote: > Sure.
