It goes back at least this far. http://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/rep_ca/1/897/ENUS296-261/index.html
we ordered the oe client against our vm adsm server way back in the 90's. It was not too hard to get the bits as we could order the feature code for a 3480 cart. Since that time we moved to an windows tsm server and it does not have feature codes for 3480 carts. All the other clients can be ftp'ed over the internet. But with the oe client we could not do this. len -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dominique Laflamme Sent: Friday, April 04, 2008 4:14 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] USS support An internal customer has issued an RFI to several internal support groups about how various components, including TSM, support Unix System Services on z/OS. The questionnaire has two questions about the history and market penetration of <insert component name here -- TSM> supporting USS that aren't answered in the product documentation directly, so I will ask the list: When did ADSM (year? release?) first support USS? (And how does that compare to the availability of USS?) Also, have there been comments at the Symposium, SHARE, or other public venues where IBM has alluded to the number of sites using TSM to support USS clients? I know IBM considers data about product licensing to be sensitive, but we'd love orders-of-magnitude sorts of numbers even. Testimonials (or warnings) about actual experiences with TSM supporting USS are welcome, but those two questions are what I'm really hoping for. :-) Thanks, Nick
