Co:Z Target Toolkit installp image for POWER7 AIX and zBX

Post by dovetail »

Today we have made available a pre-built AIX "installp" image for the Co:Z Target System toolkit on our Co:Z downloads page.
This package was built and tested on an AIX 6.1 POWER7 BladeCenter system.

With respect to IBM's recent zEnterprise BladeCenter eXtender (zBX) announcement, we expect to also support this package on the zBX Model 002 at general availability.

For more information, see:
http://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.j ... SZG10-0263

IBM's recent zEnterprise announcements offer unique opportunities to
exploit the Co:Z Launcher's ability to enable cooperative processing
and data sharing between z/OS batch and zBX blades. Co:Z's support
for disabling encryption over the fiber optic connection between the
System z10 and the zBX will enable new distributed workloads with
efficient high-speed access to z/OS datasets and spool files.


Installation instructions:

- download the coz-toolkit-v.r.m .bff package in binary to your AIX system and place it in the current working directory

- as root, enter the following command:

Code: Select all

  installp -a -d . coz-toolkit
All package files will be installed by default into directory: /opt/dovetail/coz
