Walter, You may get various technical answers but, technical answers aside, you must be very careful to adhere to the zNALC licensing terms. In this particular case, if all three of your LPARs are zNALC qualified (and if properly so), then it will likely not matter how you run Tivoli NetView. However, if you are trying to run Tivoli NetView in one zNALC LPAR, and then using NetView to support non-zNALC LPAR(s), you could very well be violating the zNALC license terms. zNALC LPARs must only be used for qualifying workloads.
Please check with IBM on this first, particularly if you are running both zNALC and non-zNALC LPARs on your machine. If you run afoul of the zNALC licensing terms then you could find yourself very quickly having to pay full z/OS and NetView license charges retroactively, plus interest and penalties. And that would be very, very bad. So before you add workload(s) to a zNALC LPAR make sure you get explicit clearance from IBM, using the one and only procedure described in the zNALC announcement letter, OK? - - - - - Timothy Sipples IBM Consulting Enterprise Software Architect Based in Tokyo, Serving IBM Japan / Asia-Pacific E-Mail: [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
