DB2, IMS and CICS have already done considerable work moving stuff from 31- to 64-Bit, to name just three products.

But how about in between? Is VSCR below the bar but above the line looming? I'd expect a motivator to be LPA. How big is LPA getting in some shops? I understand that some of Java has migrated to within the bar in order to employ 32-bit addressing without triggering further below the bar VSCR. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
