FWIW, it looks like 2.2 is already orderable on ShopZ.  Don’t know when it will 
start shipping.

The one week you gain by ordering as a PDO, you will lose by having to do all 
the SMPE and integration of your other products on the back end.  I would wait 
for Serverpack

Subject: CBPDO vs ServerPac

We're getting ready to put in our order for z/OS 2.2.  We're having an internal 
debate regarding whether we should order it as a CBPDO or a ServerPac.  We've 
always done ServerPacs in the past but we're told that we can order a CBPDO one 
week earlier.  We're very anxious to have the GA code so we're considering 
CBPDO.

Has anyone here had experience with both install methods?  We've certainly done 
CBPDOs but not for z/OS.  I was wondering whether the install process was 
considerably more labor intensive than a ServerPac and thus making the one week 
advantage moot.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks
