Stream: New Technologies

Runners are the machines that execute jobs in a GitHub Actions workflow. For example, a runner can clone your repository locally, install testing software, and then run commands that evaluate your code. Until recently these machines have not include z. A project initiated by IBM has added this capability so that you can use hosted or self-hosted runners to incorporate into your Linux or zCX environments. In this presentation the function and configuration of these action runners will be described so that you should be able to take advantage of this capability in your own installation.

As principal engineer at Sine Nomine Associates, I have been doing Linux on the mainframe since it was a skunkworks project within IBM. I have authored several articles in publications such as Enterprise Technical Journal (and its predecessors) and have presented on z/VM and Linux around the world. I am a maintainer of the CentOS-like distribution of Linux on z Systems, the Mono project (.Net on Linux), and the High Availability Option on z and Power. I am a member of the Open Mainframe Project and Linux Foundation.
