Enterprise Wide Unique Identifiers for Business Continuity
A discussion of "Enterprise Wide Unique" (EWU) identifiers as they are
needed in supporting a business continuity environment. These
identifiers provide a mechanism of ensuring a single value for a
parameter that must be unique across an entire enterprise. The purpose
of this article is to show the value of generating or calculating these
values on an as needed basis rather than recording and maintaning these
values in spreadsheets and databases.

Naming Standards for Business Continuity -
In today's partitioned and virtualized computing environments, the
requirement for naming standards is more apparent than ever before.
Unfortunately there is a wide spread lack of understanding between the
different categories of names used to identify managed systems, LPAR's,
profiles, node names, host names, and aliases. This article defines
naming categories and provide standards for creating enterprise wide
unique names associated with each category. This article also explains
why it is important to distinguish between the different naming
categories and how they are an integral part of data center automation
projects and an overall business continuity plan.

KornShell 93 Auditing - New features of the Korn Shell
provide system administrators and management with the ability to
monitor, track, record, and audit every command executed by any user of
a system. This is different from normal the normal shell history, and
provides detailed information that includes date, time, tty, user, and
the command. This information can be stored locally or transmitted in
real time to a remote logging system.

Shell Curses Function Library - Provides the shell
programmer the ability to perform text-based cursor movements to
specified locations on the screen. This ability permits the creation of
menuing and data-entry systems using shell scripts without the need for
compiled binaries. These functions are similar to the "C" language
"Curses" library.
