Available Operating Systems pane

Use this pane to find out if z/VM Center is aware of an operating system instance on a z/VM virtual server. You can register or create a new operating system instance if z/VM Center is not aware of one.

Introduction

The Operating Systems pane shows the operating system instance that is installed on a particular z/VM virtual server. z/VM Center manages a single operating system instance only on each z/VM virtual server.
To install an operating system instance you can:
  • Use an operating system template. Click New and follow the instructions in the Create Operating System wizard.
  • Install an operating system outside z/VM Center and register the operating system instance to make it known to z/VM Center.
