We (Computer Associates) also offer our "Advantage Ingres Enterprise Relational Database" database and our "Advantage EDBC" data connectors for Linux/390. The list of CA Linux/390 products is available at http://www3.ca.com/solutions/collateral.asp?id=1564&PID=3279, with links to the information pages for each. > 3).

Since I'm plugging products, you'll find our "BrightStor ARCserve Backup" and "BrightStor Enterprise Backup" products on the list above as well. And, of course, our "BrightStor VM:Backup" product hasn't forgotten how to do physical backups of non-CMS-format disks, so if you're looking to do your backups from VM that's still an option.
