OK, but don't forget you'll need to update the ACI modules in CP, too. > Write a interface for the existing CMS TCPIP clients to talk to a modern > IP stack in a Linux guest instead of the elderly Pascal one that's > shipped with VM TCPIP. That requires 2-way SENDs (SEND REPLY=YES) something I don't think AF_IUCV does. > Implement APPC over IUCV to allow Linux to natively talk to SFS, so we > can get a modern NFS server for CMS data. APPC has a whole set of primitives not available in IUCV. Further, IUCV is a full duplex service, APPC is half duplex. Oh, and the lack of a documented interface might cause you some heartburn. :-) > Directly access VM spool data from Linux w/o going through I/O emulation > with the virtual rdr/punch via *SPL. Also depends on 2-way SENDs.
