Rex, your configuration pretty much describes ours. I've always been distrustful of (little) dual processors, which make your CPU hogs run half-fast. Of course, we don't run at 100% either. > Rumor has it that the latest release of IDMS will run on a zIIP Did CA ever disclose performance experience for IDMS R17 on zIIP? (They refused me as recently as August, and so we missed the lease cycle. No zIIP for us.) -- David, I haven't heard anything about performance. I just saw the blurb that they were going to be supporting it. We are better than a year away from upgrading to IDMS 17 at this point. My DBAs have to figure out how to get us off Oracle 9 on the unix boxes before we can even consider an IDMS upgrade. But the whole idea of running IDMS on a specialty engine sounds intriguing.
