Of course cooperation between IBM and STK is a crucial point. I was reluctant a
long time to force myself to such a configuration.
We are running this environment now for half a year and right in the beginning we
had the oppurtunity to study the cooperation skills of IBM and STK on the basis of
a communication problem between SSI and ACSLS.
I expected both companies to point a finger at each other. That was not the case.
Once activated both support groups investigated in a business as usual manner. But
be aware that you are the connecting link between them, you have to trigger both.
