Assuming you aren't porting the COBOL created object code to a z/OS.e system, (and you are going to a system licensed with LE - which is part of z/OS), then there are no restrictions.
If you are going to a z/OS.e system, then there are some (easy to get around) restrictions, i.e. you need to use a "CEEPIPI" driver as the "main" program. P.S. If you have any 3rd party products (e.g. the old CA-Optimizer) you MIGHT need their required "run-time" on the target system, but the COBOL-only object code may be ported to any system with z/OS. > > Suppose we licensed a COBOL compiler for one system; would we be violating > > license restrictions to run the compiles on that one system but ship the > resulting object code out to other systems? > > Specifically thinking of a situation where developers submit their > compiles using NJE, and the compile proc's JCL uses DEST=(node,userid) to > send the results back to the submitter? > > I'm sure this is technologically feasible, my question is now that most of > > us have LE enabled as part of our systems, we no longer license the COBOL > run-times, therefore is it legal to do it this way? > > > Tim Hare > Senior Systems Programmer > Florida Department of Transportation > (850) 414-4209 > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > 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
