Implementing Linux with IBM Disk Storage

This IBM Redbook explains considerations, requirements, pitfalls, and possibilities when implementing Linux with IBM disk storage products. This redbook presents the reader with a practical overview of the tasks involved in installing Linux on a variety of IBM platforms, and also introduces people familiar with Linux to the powerful IBM TotalStorage servers: ESS and FAStT.

The book also provides the steps required to prepare the storage system for Linux host attachment.

Among other things, we review the recently added support for FCP attachment when running SuSE Linux (SLES 8) in an LPAR on a zSeries machine. On pSeries we cover the implementation of SLES 8 , either natively or in an LPAR on a p690, and explain how to configure the Emulex Host Bus Adapter for attachment to FAStT and ESS.

For Intel based machines, we look at the implementation of Red Hat Enterprise AS 2.1 and SLES 8 on xSeries servers and BladeCenter; in addition, we explain how to set up the Red Hat High Availability cluster using shared external storage.

This book also contains a chapter on the VMware ESX Server, focusing on the practical aspects of its implementation and configuration with external storage.
