| | Linux on zSeries - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Linux on zSeries (or Linux on System z9) is the preferred collective term for the Linux operating system and GNU/Linux software compiled to run on IBM mainframes, especially zSeries servers. | | | Linux on zSeries source code is available from numerous groups on a free and equal basis, and architectural support is now part of the main Linux kernel effort. | | | Siebel, for example, used the Chiphopper program to bring its Java-based CRM software to both Linux on zSeries and z/OS. |

| | IBM eServer zSeries - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | zSeries servers are well regarded for their reliability, availability, integrity, and mixed workload performance -- characteristics not typically measured in computing benchmarks. | | | A direct comparison of zSeries servers with other computing platforms is difficult. | | | In December, 2001, IBM designated all its mainframes with the name eServer zSeries, with the e depicted in IBM's well-known red trademarked symbol. |

| | Articles - Linux distribution |
| | A Linux distribution is a Unix-like operating system comprising the Linux kernel and other assorted free software/open-source software, and possibly proprietary software. | | | Before the first Linux distributions, a would-be Linux user was required to be something of a Unix expert, not only knowing what libraries and executables were needed to successfully get the system to boot and run, but also important details concerning configuration and placement of files in the system. | | | Linux distributions attracted users as an alternative to the DOS and Microsoft Windows operating systems on the PC, Mac OS on the Apple Macintosh and proprietary versions of Unix. |

| | FCP for the IBM eServer zSeries systems: Access to distributed storage |
| | This changed with the advent of Linux for zSeries, since its storage I/O component is oriented toward SCSI protocols. | | | However, this additional layer in Linux for zSeries is unique to zSeries and does not allow it to exploit storage subsystems and applications that are dependent on a SCSI attachment. | | | Since the development of Linux by Linus Torvalds in 1991, it has been significantly extended and improved by a huge number of developers from all over the world, making it an industrial-strength operating system for running anything from appliances to mainframe computers. |

| | Linux on IBM S/390 and zSeries servers is completely consistent with Linux on Intel in terms of the basic operating system features and APIs. | | | Current Linux experience, at Oracle, IBM and throughout the IT market, indicates that behavior and performance for database operations and sophisticated enterprise applications are not yet on par with z/OS or the well-established UNIX environments. | | | Customers are encouraged to use the Linux discussion forum on OTN (Oracle Technology Network) to share experiences and exchange information with other customers. |

| | IBM to push cheaper ‘Linux-only’ zSeries, iSeries The Register |
| | According to Peter McCaffrey, director of zSeries product marketing at IBM, the new machines are based on feedback and market success that IBM has had last year in promoting the mainframe as a platform on which enterprise customers can consolidate their Unix, Linux, and Windows workloads. | | | Customers with existing zSeries and iSeries servers supporting their core ERP applications will be inclined to listen to IBM's sales pitch and maybe even run some numbers to see if they could save some money by consolidating Unix, Linux, or Windows applications onto Linux partitions on these zSeries or iSeries servers. | | | The impression that one gets from IBM is that if Linux had not been available, mainframe revenues would have declined. |
