Yu,
does anybody have books, red-books, primers, web-sites or
recommendations for new zVM system programmers?
I'm biased, but I would recommend the he redbook z/VM and Linux on

Hi, Yu.
Welcome to the wonderful world of z/VM!
Since you posted your query on the Linux-390 list, I shall assume you
are mostly interested in z/VM as it relates to supporting Linux guests.
The place I would start would be with this excellent IBM publication
(and it's even free!):

Is there a safe way to move LVM filesystems from one zLinux guest to
another? I want to move them from a SLES 8.2 instance to a SLES 9
instance without losing the data?
Thank you.

Use tar. Create a tarball (tar -z -cf) , transport the tarball file to the
new system and un-tar it (tar -z -xpf) . Read the man pages on tar carefully.

I hoped to lift the zVM minidisk entries from one user directory (SLES
8.2) and drop them into another (SLES 9). That part is straightforward.
But how do I capture the SLES 8.2 zLinux LVM definitions and replicate
them on the SLES 9 system? Can it be done? Is it safe? Is it quicker

Dave's suggestion of vsftpd is a good one, but I'm curious as to what more

It should be doable, but going from an LVM-1 system to an LVM-2 system has
sometimes caused issues for people in the Intel world at least. Make sure
you have a good backup.
A lot of the LVM information is written as metadata on the physical volumes
(PVs) themselves.

Now that we have an IFL, and have Oracle running on it (no one in

it for 2 weeks now), they are asking for an Oracle Application Server.

Hello,
I have an odd situation and I'm wondering if anybody else has
encountered the same and if so, what they did to correct the situation.
I'm running a test Suse Linux ES 9.0 on a zseries 890 in LPAR mode. The
machine has on it two OSA Gigabit adapters which are shared with a
production z/OS
At the zSeries expo it was mentioned that the Oracle Application Server
will be available for Linux for zSeries 'around the end of the year'.
What exactly that means, I don't know. Denny Dutcavitch of IBM was
giving the presentation.
I'm not sure what you're getting at with your comment about

How big are your Linux images? I've seen this happen when the images
are too large, but in that case
You might try:
/etc/init.d/network restart
So it stops the connections before starting them.
Is it safe to assume that z/OS doesn't experience the same issue?

Dedicated application server.
Well, with IBM's Websphere (and I assume others), IBM apparently has a
licensed Websphere product that can be bundled with the venders
application at a greatly reduced price.
IBM's HATS is one example.
If you get this type of licensed Websphere, you are not

That is why I'm trying to lean towards a full WAS license. Since IBM
