Sorry, should have made myself much clearer.  It's KSDS datasets.  There will 
be applications running in the zOS (2.1) region that will continue to 
"maintain" this VSAM data (insert/update/del) thru batch and CICS.  Copying and 
FTPing are somewhat impractical as a result since the java app has to have real 
time access to it.  The java app will be using an Oracle DB.
Thanks!
