For those that have familiarized themselves with the basics of UNIX on Z, it's time to make friends with the Bourne Again Shell, dig a little deeper into the dark arts, and take advantage of the power of UNIX. During this session, you'll learn how to set up a telnet session with a more of a "real UNIX" feel. You'll also learn about process management, pipes, I/O redirection, regular expressions, and useful UNIX commands. After leaving this presentation you should know how to kill a zombie process to avoid wasted system resources, relegate an active process to background processing to make more effective use of your interactive UNIX session, invoke a command from your shell history, use grep to search contents of a file, and perform other tasks familiar to an intermediate-level UNIX user.
