Radislaw, Just like Shane, I like your zingers! I just wish that this applied to our datacenter. Tonight, we shut down our CICS regions in update mode for the last time. They will be brought up in read only mode so people can have access to data - but no updating. On Tuesday, if all goes well, we will be running on our Pennsylvania datacenter on SAP/R3 under AIX on RS6000s. I'll let everyone know what happens. If this works, and I think it will, the whole mainframe will go away at once, by the end of April.
By the way, yesterday I tried to post a couple of times. I couldn't get my popup blocker to allow me to reply. I finally figured out that I have a 2nd popup blocker running from Yahoo that got installed when I downloaded Adobe PDF V7. Now I know where to turn it off.
