Exactly. The flexibility and greater future proof-ness is valuable. Rob Schramm wrote: >z/os 1.4 runs on a z13s mono-cpu with no accommodation other than having >all available maintenance applied. Multi-cpu's is a wait-state. OK, that's lucky. However, I would not assume the status quo "forever." It's prudent to plan ahead. That's Enterprise Extender. I wouldn't be nervous about EE here, but if for some reason you're nervous, just backstop EE with CTCA if you wish. Anything *could* break, so following that logic logically, use both paths. And, of course, configure both correctly and test. That's always true. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy Sipples IT Architect Executive, Industry Solutions, IBM Z & LinuxONE, Multi-Geography E-Mail: sipp...@sg.ibm.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
