Funny how times have changed. Yes it was IMS 2.2 and it did not actually fail in testing. It was in test for quite a while and there was a lot of pressure to put it into production. It crashed mid-morning as the national branch network came online on the monday after it went live. It came up again, went down again, yo-yo'd a few times and then stayed down. The real problem was in the restart and recovery processing which changed in 2.2. -- This email might be from the artist formerly known as CC (or not) You be the judge. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
