1) Network folks 2) Security folks 3) Sysprogs 4) Application programmers :-) Ok... only half kidding. Are you talking about the mainframe people only? Most have the official HR title of System Engineer with a number. System Engineer IV - for example. Going by management designations: 1) Network is "Network & Telecom" - but this is WAN/LAN. In the case of the mainframe sysprogs, "The VTAM group" or "The VTAM and TCP/IP group". I try to call them the "Comm server group" (they are part of the OS mainframe group - same as the "MVS" sysprogs). 2) "Security". I'm not sure what they call the distributed folks, either security techs or security operations, network security. For the mainframe they call them "RACF Admins" or "Security Admins" 3) "_______ system programmer (or sysprog)" Fill in the blank with MVS, VTAM, CICS, DB2, MQ, or WebSphere. All but "MVS" and "VTAM" fall under "middleware" as opposed to "operating system". This is true for unix and wintel also. There is also "The automation group" that has mainframe and distributed folks and also works with the monitors. 4) Application programmers. -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group - ZFUS G-ITO mailto:[email protected] z/OS Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.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
