I cannot make the system available to other personnel. It is that isolated.

I don't think I saw any feedback for this question: If you all want to to re-approach the party that was considering to make an environment available for a couple of developers, they wanted to understand what would be required: * How many userids (1, 2) * Memory required on the z/OS image * Disk space required to support the perl source, build and testing activity * CPU requirements. i:e: Assuming there isn't an I/O bottleneck, the build/test would consume how many processors for how long a period of time * Times of day the development activity would occur. (They need to make sure resources are available for other commitments) * Regards, John Goodyear IT Specialist: zBX Power Blades ATS zEnterprise Focus Team Gaithersburg,MD [email protected] "Phipps, Dan" ---02/13/2012 10:29:00 AM---Ricardo, I have access to a z/OS 1.11 test system that is isolated.

I'll step up to the plate. Definitely -- and what we need more than that is access to a test system. Right now, we have one or two people who are offering to try and figure out whether EBCDIC and MVS stuff is working at all, but so far nobody seems to have a machine where they can work to run tests, make changes, and so on. So I am *elated* to hear that you have and are offering domain knowledge! I just don't know whether we have put it to use just yet. I hope to be able to harass you future on this topic in the future, though. :) -- rjbs
