Is there any way you can wiggle an ICF into your configuration? For example, could you go to a 2xx model? Are you WLC (and thus could conceivably shift the Linux workload to the CPs)? Could you consolidate more Linux work and turn on an IFL or two in the second system to convert it, better funding its maintenance? Do you need the CF? Have you had a recent chat with your IBM SE^H^H IT Specialist?
I'm not liking Plan A either. :-) - - - - - Timothy F. Sipples Consulting Enterprise Software Architect, z9/zSeries IBM Japan, Ltd.
