A new version of Leland Lucius' z/VM System Management API (SMAPI) command line client for Unix system is available for download.
This version now supports the z/VM 6.2 level of SMAPI, including the SSI live guest relocation functions (although those haven't been tested well). This tool allows you to perform any of the SMAPI API calls from a remote system if you have a suitably privileged userid on the target VM system - create and destroy userids, change configurations, etc. without ever having to see a 3270. To use this code, you need to set up the VM SMAPI servers as documented in the VM manuals. The name of the package has changed to avoid a name collision with some parts of IBM Director. Same tasty insides, new name. The new code can be downloaded from http://download.sinenomine.net/smaclient Have fun. ==db ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
