Cloudlib4zvm supports initiating changes to a Linux on z Systems virtual machine while Linux is shut down or

the virtual machine is logged off. The changes to Linux are implemented using an activation engine (AE)

that is run when Linux is booted the next time. The 1st active engine, zvmguestconfigure, must be installed
