Or if you plan to use any of the newer goodies in VM like the LDAP
server or
IMAP or some of the other nice things. IBM only supports use of SFS
and/or
BFS for these services, and if you think DDR sucks, wait until you meet
FILEPOOL BACKUP.

Peter, can you describe that mod in more detail? I think that should be
a
requirement (you can also use the pipe-friendly DDR stage that supports
writing output to a pipe stage so you can just feed it directly into the
TAPn stage and GET STANDARD LABELS (woo hoo)).
