The $ACTIVATE level matters only to JES2, not to z/OS. If you run a down-level JES2 (such as 1.6) under z/OS 1.7, then you can join a MAS at the 'R4' level.
My question is, why not $ACTIVATE to the 'z/OS 1.2' level now? It's very clean these days. You get some new features and extended capability. And once it's done, it's done. . .

We run this JES2 in R4 mode. Now I know that the JES2 which comes with z/OS V1 R7 will only run in the z2 mode. So my question is can we run our JES2 V1 R6 in R4 mode under z/OS V1 R7? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
