Managing z/VM & Linux Performance Best Practices

With the growth of z/VM and Linux on z Systems, many system administrators are looking for System Management solutions on z/VM and Linux for z Systems. They expect solutions on z/VM and Linux for z Systems to have similar Systems Management capabilities to what they have in the z/OS environment. While similar in nature, these tools must assist in managing the unique challenges of virtual servers compared to servers on dedicated hardware. This presentation will focus on how OMEGAMON XE on z/VM and Linux monitors the unique challenges of Linux on z Systems as well as z/VM. Additionally, scenarios showing the benefits of integration with other IBM management software for z/VM will be introduced.
