We are running OS390 2.10 going 64 bit upgrade in a month's time.
I guess that since we are running a Linux LPAR (not z/VM) we can upgrade
SuSE 8 to 64 bit anytime.

Has anyone got a checklist of what to do in SuSE 8 to upgrade to 64 bit?
We have MQ Series 5.3. Would that also have to be upgraded? How about
Perl, MySQL etc?

TIA

So I need to have VM 4.4 64 Bit installed, then acquire a copy of SLES 8
64 Bit mode and install that?

Thanks!

Nope.

Can I install 64 bit SLES 8 into a Z900 running VM 4.4 31 Bit mode?

A 64-bit z/VM doesn't imply that the Linux you're installing will run in
64-bit mode. They are two different products. If you look through the
packages when you have the opportunity in YaST you see RPMs with .s390.rpm
or .s390x.rpm as their suffixes. The former is for the 32-bit
architecture,
the latter for 64-bit.

Got it, I am running Under VM  (31 Bit mode).  How, what, and where would
I set or change to get VM to run 64 bit and have my SLES 8 install in 64
bit mode.
