2. |  Merging Systems into a Sysplex By: Frank Kyne; Jeff Belot; Grant Bigham; Alberto Camara Jr.; Michael Ferguson; Gavin Foster; Roger Lowe; Mirian Minomizaki Sato; Graeme Simpson; Valeria Sokal; Feroni Suhood Publisher: IBM Redbooks Publication Date: 19-DEC-2002 Insert Date: 05-NOV-2012 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Merging Systems into a Sysplex This IBM Redbooks publication provides information to help
Systems Programmers plan for merging systems into a sysplex.
zSeries systems are highly flexibile systems capable of processing
many workloads. As a result, there are many things to consider when
merging independent systems into the more closely integrated
environment of a sysplex. This book will help you identify these
issues in advance and thereby ensure a successful project.

and implement the z/OS Cryptographic PCICC and PCICA cards.
Although this book focuses on the enablement of the z/OS PCICC and
PCICA products, cryptography and the available services on z/OS are
also discussed and explained, with special attention given to the
new Trusted Key Entry (TKE 3.1) workstation.
In addition, we look at how Linux for zSeries supports the
exploitation of the PCICC and PCICA cryptographic coprocessors by
using a generic device driver called z90crypt, which routes the
cryptographic work to the PCICC or...

8. |  z/VM on an EFS Base: Getting Started By: Bill Ogden Publisher: IBM Redbooks Publication Date: 28-APR-2004 Insert Date: 28-AUG-2012 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: z/VM on an EFS Base: Getting Started This IBM Redbooks publication provides a basic introduction to
z/VM usage in a specific environment and assumes the use of a
particular z/VM implementation (which is described in detail). With
this starting point, we discuss the initial structure of z/VM and
describe a number of common tasks (step by step) along with the
rationale for these tasks. The user is assumed to have a common
z/OS implementation or a common Linux for S/390 system, or both,
already installed. We assume that the total operation is on an IBM
ThinkPad with the FLEX-ES product installed.

the Resource Recovery Services (RRS) environment. RRS provides a
global syncpoint manager that any resource manager on z/OS can
exploit. It enables transactions to update protected resources
managed by many resource managers.
RRS is increasingly becoming a prerequisite for new resource
managers, and for new capabilities in existing resource managers.
Rather than having to implement their own two-phase commit
protocol, these products can use the support provided by RRS.
Since older transaction managers like CICS already offered...
