Kim,

    Regrettably I have no experience with an OS390 machine, but as far as Oracle
vs DB2 we did look into that option a couple of months ago.  From a cost
perspective DB2 is no cheaper than Oracle once you toss in all of the goodies
that Oracle sends along gratis.  From an operational perspective I found getting
everything configured and running smoothly a real pain in DB2 and much easier in
Oracle.

     We're looking at possibly running Oracle on our mainframe, but the 
     perception exists that a more optimum solution would be DB2.  I would 
     appreciate hearing from anyone that is running Oracle on OS390, and/or 
     made a decision between DB2 and Oracle.
     
     Thanks -
