Hi Cheryl (and all),
You're spot on when you say it's the entire IBM website. There was a
huge initiative to streamline ibm.com by removing pretty much everything
except marketing-related content, with last week marking the end of the
line for most pages. All teams have been working hard to move content
and set up URL redirects, but, as Horst mentioned, the work continues.
I'll pass these comments on to the initiative leads so that they're
aware of the specific problems and can hopefully direct resolutions ASAP.

Hi Horst,
Thanks for the pointer. I just found it after a LOOOOONG search. IBM needs to
learn about aliases.
This is a HUGE problem. I just went through my IBM favorite links and almost
none of them work. Even zfavorites doesn't work anymore. This isn't just a
WLM problem - it's the entire IBM website. The one I use the most is for
software pricing and after two months I still have to search for the things
that were so easy to find before.
Who can I formally complain to? I want to make a case for them creating
aliases for the most common links. And in addition, don't forget to add a menu
of site locations in the pull-down. Now, all it does is link to a KC manual
that doesn't help at all.
I can't even write a requirement for it because it affects every single
component of z/OS and would be rejected.
This is ridiculous!
Unhappily,
Cheryl

Hi Kees,
glad that someone notices :-)
But seriously - while some restructuring of the web site is ongoing we're
working on cutting over to mostly github based repositories.
If you open the presentation at
https://github.com/IBM/IBM-Z-zOS/blob/master/zOS-WLM/WLM%20Tools.pdf you'll see
a summary of the WLM related tools. Alain's LPAR design tool can be downloaded
from
ftp://public.dhe.ibm.com/eserver/zseries/zos/wlm/LPARDesign-HD-zPCR-V9-T03_IBM.zip
We expect a restructured "web page" to become available shortly at
https://github.com/IBM/IBM-Z-zOS/tree/master/zOS-WLM/WLM%20Documents.md
(It is NOT up and running as of today).
