our mainframe (z/OS) sysadmin (note singular -- just me) also doubles as a Linux (VMware/Intel) sysadmin ... but none of our Linux or Solaris sysadmins does anything with the mainframe ... ditto with our applications people ... the mainframe (CICS/ADABAS/Natural/VSAM/COBOL) programmers are also doing Java/Apache/Tomcat on Solaris and Linux programming. but our Java kids don't help with the CICS stuff ... so, not integrated ... just in the process of migration ... so they coexist ... --Stephen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
