Hi,
I am glad to here that 10g will be supported. We have SuSE 8 31-bit and
64-bit, so I guess we will proceed with the 64-bit SuSE version. We have
managed to connect the VSSI VPARS VM product to the z/VM Linux image, and
it intercepts the Oracle DB I/O. This will allow multiple users to

When I looked at Oracle one of the things they said was the 9.x.x would be the

I would avoid using Samba. It mangles the symbolic links and you will get
crazy results. We just tar.gz 'd the file and ftp'd it up that's the safest

If you're not allowed to permanently install Linux on an Intel system, would
it be bending the rules too much to use a Knoppix live CD to boot into

Actually, both monitoring and maintenance of the instances. I am trying to figure out

or both.
We basically arent monitoring anthing, and I need to figure out where to start.

The problem with monitoring only in one place (for Linux under VM) is that
you are missing half the picture. Find good bosses who will spring for the
cost of properly monitoring all sides of your system.

On the VM side, it will use IBM's monitor or Velocity's monitor.
