When connecting to SAN-attached storage, you will likely be communicating via Fibre Channel Protocol instead of FICON. This session will discuss all the steps involved in implementing an FCP connection from an IBM zSystem to an "open system" storage device. Knowledge of how traditional z storage attaches to an IBM zSystem is helpful but not required.
This session will discuss and demonstrate more than 20 REXX EXECs, many inspired by Linux commands. These include GREP, DIFF, HEAD, MAN, TAIL, WHICH, WC and WHO. They are open source and available on Github. In addition a Web front end named z/VM and Linux Modern Administration (zlma) will be discussed and demonstrated.
