No, there's no good reason not to implement a pool. Whether you have one member or five, you're positioned to easily add more if you need to. The Linux guests will not be using the z/VM SSL servers. It's the CMS applications that benefit from it, e.g. telnet server, ftp client and server, etc. Alan Altmark Senior Managing z/VM and Linux Consultant Lab Services System z Delivery Practice IBM Systems & Technology Group ibm.com/systems/services/labservices office: 607.429.3323 mobile; 607.321.7556 [email protected] IBM Endicott ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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/
