General issues with Linux on IBM mainframe systems

This topic discusses general issues related to running Rational® ClearCase® 7.0 and later on IBM mainframes running Linux.

The following are known limitations:
  • Symmetric Multiprocessing. The Linux kernel as distributed by SuSE contains support for symmetric multiprocessing (SMP). It is possible to build a kernel without this support, but the SMP kernel is the only one supported for ClearCase.
  • There is no Web browser support for SuSE Linux for the S/390 and zSeries.
