John was suggesting that a new program be added to the Downloads website. I don't think there are any packages there now that deal with saving/restoring DCSSes/NSSes/etc.
The download website is: http://www.vm.ibm.com/download/packages/ There are LOTS of usable programs there even if they are OLD. Some of the old REXX functions and Pipeline stages work just GREAT. /Tom Kern /301-903-2211 --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Is this available VM down load site ? > What's the pgm name and doc ? > Can I have url for the VM Download site ? > > Thanks, > > Ann > > > > > "Jim Bohnsack" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent by: "The IBM z/VM Operating System" <[email protected]> > 03/07/2007 09:31 AM > Please respond to > "The IBM z/VM Operating System" <[email protected]> > > > To > [email protected] > cc > > Subject > Re: SPXTAPE alternatives > > > > > > > That would make a great addition to the VM Download site.
