You can also provision Linux guests under z/VM. A vswitch allows you to connect all of your guests (all operating systems that run under z/VM) easily to the network. You can simulate your production environment on a sysplex. The intention of this book is to show the strengths of z/VM and how you can use these strengths to simulate your production environment and expand your application development and testing environments.
Download or read book IBM System z in a Mobile World Providing Secure and Timely Mobile Access to the Mainframe written by Axel Buecker and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2014-11-26 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, organizations engage with customers, business partners, and employees who are increasingly using mobile technology as their primary general-purpose computing platform. These organizations have an opportunity to fully embrace this new mobile technology for many types of transactions, including everything from exchanging information to exchanging goods and services, from employee self-service to customer service. With this mobile engagement, organizations can build new insight into the behavior of their customers so that organizations can better anticipate customer needs and gain a competitive advantage by offering new services. Becoming a mobile enterprise is about re-imagining your business around constantly connected customers and employees. The speed of mobile adoption dictates transformational rather than incremental innovation. This IBM® Redbooks® publication has an end-to-end example of creating a scalable, secure mobile application infrastructure that uses data that is on an IBM mainframe. The book uses an insurance-based application as an example, and shows how the application is built, tested, and deployed into production. This book is for application architects and decision-makers who want to employ mobile technology in concert with their mainframe environment.
Download or read book z VSE Using DB2 on Linux for System z written by Helmut Hellner and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2010-02-03 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data is one the most critical and valuable assets of a business. Critical strategic decisions can be made more quickly and effectively when they are based on complete, accurate, and timely operational data. From this point of view, it is important to have an enterprise data management architecture that supports a flexible global view of the business. Many environments today are heterogeneous with a high quantity and diversity of data. In this IBM® Redbooks® publication, we help enterprise architects and IT managers with these environments make decisions for a centralized database or data warehouse. We recommend a centralized data management environment on Linux® on System z®. We include guidance for IBM z/VSETM and Linux specialists to reorganize existing IBM DB2® VSE data and build a database environment with continuous operation in Linux on System z. We begin this book by describing the possibilities and advantages of enterprise data management and different technical ways to realize it. Then we discuss planning, which is important for setting the foundation of the architecture that is implemented. We explain the hardware considerations for capacity and performance planning. For the z/VSE system and Linux on System z, we describe considerations for operation in a logical partition (LPAR) and in a virtualized environment with IBM z/VM®. In addition, we discuss the disk behavior for different workloads, storage dependencies, network connections, and DB2 database considerations. We also guide you in customizing the DB2 server for z/VSE, z/VM, and DB2 on Linux to allow existing z/VSE and z/VM applications to access the database on Linux on System z. We include the data migration, application considerations, dependencies, compatibility, monitoring, and tuning possibilities in such an environment.

Download or read book An Introduction to z VM Single System Image SSI and Live Guest Relocation LGR written by Lydia Parziale and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IBM® z/VM® 6.2 introduces significant changes to z/VM in the form of multi-system clustering technology allowing up to four z/VM instances in a single system image (SSI) cluster. This technology is important, because it offers clients an attractive alternative to vertical growth by adding new z/VM systems. In the past, this capability required duplicate efforts to install, maintain, and manage each system. With SSI, these duplicate efforts are reduced or eliminated. Support for live guest relocation (LGR) allows you to move Linux virtual servers without disruption to the business, helping you to avoid planned outages. The z/VM systems are aware of each other and can take advantage of their combined resources. LGR enables clients to avoid loss of service due to planned outages by relocating guests from a system requiring maintenance to a system that remains active during the maintenance period. Together, the SSI and LGR technologies offer substantial client value, and they are a major departure from past z/VM practices. This IBM Redbooks® publication gives you a broad understanding of the new SSI architecture and an overview of LGR. We show an LGR example that shows a typical SAP user environment. In our example, the SAP Application Server Central Instance resides on a Linux on System z® guest and an IBM DB2® 10 database server runs on z/OS®. This book is written for IT architects, who design the systems, and IT specialists, who build the systems.

Download or read book Introduction to the New Mainframe Security written by Rica Weller and published by IBM Redbooks. This book was released on 2007-04-26 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides students of information systems with the background knowledge and skills necessary to begin using the basic security facilities of IBM System z. It enables a broad understanding of both the security principles and the hardware and software components needed to insure that the mainframe resources and environment are secure. It also explains how System z components interface with some non-System z components. A multi-user, multi-application, multi-task environment such as System z requires a different level of security than that typically encountered on a single-user platform. In addition, when a mainframe is connected in a network to other processors, a multi-layered approach to security is recommended. Students are assumed to have successfully completed introductory courses in computer system concepts. Although this course looks into all the operating systems on System z, the main focus is on IBM z/OS. Thus, it is strongly recommended that students have also completed an introductory course on z/OS. Others who will benefit from this course include experienced data processing professionals who have worked with non-mainframe-based platforms, as well as those who are familiar with some aspects of the mainframe environment or applications but want to learn more about the security and integrity facilities and advantages offered by the mainframe environment.

This book was released on 2012-12-12 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time it is possible to deploy an integrated hardware platform that brings mainframe and distributed technologies together: a system that can start to replace individual islands of computing and that can work to reduce complexity, improve security, and bring applications closer to the data that they need. With the zEnterprise System a new concept in IT infrastructures is being introduced: zEnterprise ensembles. A zEnterprise ensemble is a collection of highly virtualized diverse systems that can be managed as a single logical entity where diverse workloads can be deployed. Ensembles, together with the virtualization, flexibility, security, and management capabilities provided by the zEnterprise System are key to solving the problems posed by today's IT infrastructure. The zEnterprise System consists of three components: - IBM® zEnterprise Central Processor Complex (CPC) The zEnterprise CPC can either be a zEnterprise 196 (z196) or a zEnterprise 114 (z114). Both zEnterprise CPCs offer z/OS, z/VSE, and z/TPF operating systems, as well as the ability to run many virtualized Linux servers under the z/VM operating system. - IBM zEnterprise BladeCenter Extension (zBX) The zBX provides the capability to run the wide variety of applications typically found in UNIX and x86 architectures. The zBX supports select POWER7 blades running AIX and System x blades running Linux on System x and Microsoft Windows. - IBM zEnterprise Unified Resource Manager Unified Resource Manager runs in the Hardware Management Console (HMC). It provides integrated management across all elements of the zEnterprise System. This IBM Redbooks® publication discusses how to plan and implement an ensemble, using the zEnterprise Unified Resource Manager. This book assumes a knowledge of IT systems, networks, and storage devices.
