9:15 AM z/VM 64-bit Support - Externals
z/VM, IBM's latest VM operating system, exploits the 64-bit
architecture available on the IBM zSeries 900 processors to
utilize greater than 2GB of central storage for pageable
guests. It also facilitates the testing of 64-bit operating
systems by allowing for the definition of virtual machines
with storage sizes greater than 2GB. This presentation will
show you how to utilize the new capabilities introduced with
this support and explain how the commands, messages and
systems generation process have changed in this new
VM operating system.

10:30 AM The Quick and Easy Way to get started with LINUX
Do you want to get started with Linux, but don't know
how to begin? This session will get you started withletion,
the Marist distribution. We will step through a complete
installation of the Marist system, from obtaining the this
kernel and file system to generating a bootable system).
and connecting it to the outside world.
The emphasis will be on doing the installation under VM,
but the steps required to do this in an LPAR will also
be described. This presentation will cover basic Linux
installation concepts that will useful regardless of the
Linux distribution that you may be considering.

1:00 PM Program Management Binder/Loader for CMS
In z/VM, CMS hosts the DFSMS/MVS Program Management Binder,
and provides a native implementation of the corresponding
program object loader functions.
Included with this support is a new CMS command, BIND,
to invoke the services of the binder to bind and store an
executable file containing a program object on DASD
(minidisk, SFS, or BFS), and an enhancement to the C89
command to optionally use the binder in place of the
combination of the LE prelinker and the LOAD and GENMOD
commands. Furthermore, the complete binder API is
available to application programs which need to invoke the
services of the binder dynamically.
This session covers both the externals and the internals
of the new CMS binder/loader support, and also examines
its potential role in shaping the future of
OS application affinity in CMS.

3:30 PM "VM SSL on LINUX"
In October of 2000, IBM announced an SSL server for VM.
SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer.
This implementation was done using LINUX on VM. During this
discussion I will discuss how to set up the SSL server,
how it works, and some interesting VM/LINUX techniques that
we used.
