Ed, I hope that clients don't feel we are starting to "backslide", and would be willing to discuss offline any comments they may have. And I do appreciate the kind words. However, CA-1 does still support NSL tapes for those clients that want to use them. To be honest, I haven't seen any clients still using NSL for many years now. But they should still work.
And as others have stated, we do not "hook" any IBM modules. And this includes not replacing OMODVOL1 and EMODVOL1, though we do dynamically front-end them. Russell Witt CA-1 Level-2 Support Manager ...<snip>... I know its been a while and my memory could be incomplete. I vaguely remember that UCC-1 (CA-1) replaced the IBM modules OMODVOL1 and maybe EMODVOL1. That was not reflected in SMPE zones. Its a mute point as IIRC UCC1 (ca-1) dropped support for NSL labels a while ago. The zaps for O/C /E weren't either (again IIRC) those weren't reflected in the CSI. I have understood from others on the list here that UCC-1 (CA-1) had gotten their act together on the SMPe side. But at least one person commented on here that the started to backslide. Since I am no longer in the support for UCC-1 side my knowledge has aged and has been outdated by several years. I will depend on the group here to keep us updated on the real competence level of the support (SMPe) wise of CA-1. I have lauded CA-1 support for their SMPe support in the recent past. I may have to retract that if I hear from others that they are slipping backwards. BTW the debugging staff at CA-1 IMO is fairly good as CA support goes. I have heard less criticism of them than the rest of CA so that is always a good sign.
