Ed, Have you checked the z/os 1.7 migration guides? I believe that it was IBM's intention to consolidate ALL the migration information into a single document.

Please join with me in complaining to IBM that there are no more migration guides for z/OS JES2 and JES3, beginning with z/OS 1.7. These _extremely useful_ books were "scrapped" because some "genius" erroneously believed that the "z/OS 1.7 Introduction and Release Guide" would provide equivalent information. See for yourselves, it doesn't even come close! http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/E0Z2A117/ AFAICT, all of that great JES2/JES3 migration information has been lost! And, at the worst possible time too! (Look how much JES2 exit rewrite is required due to the extensive JES2 infrastructure changes in z/OS 1.7 needed to support large data sets and TCP/IP over NJE! JES3 installations are lucky because no drastic JES3 rewrite was/is needed to support these features. But there will almost certainly come a time for them as well.) The old migration books provided, not just a list of changes and new features, but guidelines and specific details on tolerating/exploiting them. They were an invaluable resource! We need them back! -- Edward E Jaffe Phoenix Software International, Inc 5200 W Century Blvd, Suite 800 Los Angeles, CA 90045 310-338-0400 x318 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.phoenixsoftware.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
