In this session the speaker will cover the end-to-end experience that we had in
the IBM Washington Systems Center assisting a Tier 1 (very large) bank in
migrating Linux workloads from distributed systems to LinuxONE. The CPC was in
Dynamic Partition Manager (DPM) mode, all of the storage was FCP/SCSI, and most
of the work was deployed under z/VM 7.2.0. There were numerous pitfalls and ways
that we wound up having to re-work things after learning some lessons the hard
way. This session covers the environment we had, decisions made, automation
created, standards created, and more. There will be information in this session
covering the entire range of skill levels; basic planning all the way through
SME-level implementation.
