I am feeling for you, you who are really who is one of the serious top-gun JES3 gurus. I remember the ten thousand millions (and still counting) threads in IBM-MAIN about JES3 and comparision and "unification" of JES2 and JES3. >There is still much more to do to bring JES2 up to JES3 standard, but >apparently IBM believes they can get it all done by September 2021... Hahaha, LOL, I don't believe in such predictions that something will happens at time X/Y/Z. Usually I take such 'predictions' with a very small pinch of tasteless salt, but I will remember it and wait at the predicted date/time. Oh, wait, big blue forgot about backward compatibility... I however see, there will be a lot of vendors trying to assisting conversion to JES2 from JES3. Disclaimer: I never ever see or worked with JES3 at all. If I say something about JES3 innards, feel free to disregard it with your great pleasure. ;-) Groete / Greetings Elardus Engelbrecht ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
