You can buy license for the smallest z9BC and use the same code on 2064-2C16 bought on second-hand market. Or several machines. Or without buying any license, just pay your friendly sysprog for copy of the tapes... It's legal issue, not technical one. >> You end paying for all MSUs in service and support. Creatively you can reduce the charges by moving the ISV software around or unloading the print servers to AIX. Guess about the only time I've every loaned anybody software was when a local service bureau was on it's way out and had lost many of it's people and had a big lightning enema. IBM had the service contract but the customer hadn't done maint in a while and their version of ICKDSF wouldn't format the new dasd so I cut them a copy of SAICKDSF and gave it to the SE on the account. Paying for or loaning IBM tapes is illegal in US-Property of IBM. Seen people fired for bringing in unlicensed software to large shops. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
