    Overview of z/VM

     An operating system (VM = virtual machine)


     A hypervisor, which refers to a system that virtualizes the real hardware
    environment
     Runs on the zSeries architecture created by IBM
     Latest version is Version 5, Release 4

    z/VM as an Operating System

    • A highly flexible test and production environment

    • Has the ability to run multiple machine images and architectures

    • Can simplify the migration from one release to another

    Control Program
    CMS General Concepts
     CMS: Conversational Monitor System

     CMS is an interactive user interface that runs


    under the control of CP

    Provides an application programming and


    execution environment
     Commands, EXECs (scripts), pipelines, Xedit,
    compilers, user programs

    Many tools available


    REXX, Vendor programs
    10
    CMS Strengths
    User-friendly
    English-like, extensible command language
     Simple, easy-to-use file system

    Cooperates well with CP


    Commands to exploit CP function and devices
    Exploits virtual machine concepts
     Commands can be automatically passed to CP, if not
    found in CMS, or directly by issuing #CP command

    High performance
    Single-user orientation
    Shared CMS Nucleus
    File system performance

    27 active to the system and which are free
    CP Commands – Query Commands

     Query CPU ID is to display the double word processor identifier used by our virtual machine.
     Returns the CPU ID of the issuing users Virtual processor.
     CPUID= aassssssccccdddd
     aa identifies the version code. These two digits are set to X'FF' to identify that your virtual machine is running
    under z/VM.
     ssssss identifies the processor. This field contains six hexadecimal digits. This is the only part of the CPUID
    that can be modified by means of the SET CPUID command or set by the system directory's OPTION control
    statement.
     cccc identifies the model number. This field is set to the model number of the real machine.
     dddd identifies the machine check extended logout length. For z900 and z800 servers, this field is set to
    X'0000'. For all other supported servers, this field is set to X'8000'.
