I will be curious to see how things go in 6 to 12 months also. As I mentioned last week, our datacenter cut over ALL of our z/OS workload last Tuesday. From everything I've heard, we are doing very well. I've never heard of anyone cutting over a datacenter in 1 fell swoop, but we did it.
I have another month and a half while they figure out what we need off of the mainframe, and then my job and about 5 others will be eliminated.
