Chapter 4. Installing and configuring z/VM
To complete this chapter, you must complete the majority of Chapter 6, “Configuring a
Network File System server for RHEL 5.2” on page 85.
However, we recommend that you start here, because the instdvd step (used when installing
z/VM) listed in 4.1.2, “Copying a vanilla z/VM system to DASD” on page 31, takes two or more
hours to complete. While that process is running, you can configure the Network File System
(NFS) server. Alternatively, if you have other personnel who can work on the project, you can
start both chapters at the same time on the different systems.
In this chapter, you perform the following steps:
Installing z/VM from DVD
Configuring TCP/IP
Configuring the XEDIT profile
Customizing the SYSTEM CONFIG file
Configuring TCP/IP to start at IPL time
Adding paging volumes
Creating a user ID for common files
Addressing z/VM security issues
Relabeling the system volumes
