 Is that a joke?  I was making $46K almost 20 years ago.  I'm definitely 
 not your candidate.

If they want to double that number, then they'll be getting a little closer. 

I wish them luck on finding someone for that

Re: cpu upgrade

2009-10-17 Thread Peter Vander Woude
My original question was about upgrading a cpu, by increasing the capacity of 
existing engines.  If I am understanding the posts so far, this additional 
capacity is available immediately, correct?

Any feedback on how ISV products, that have passwords, based on the cpu, 
handle the increase?

Thanks,
Pete

For the $$$ upgrade they'll send you new  passwords that match the model 
type and the CPUID.

On ISPF-L, Pedro Vera also suggests setting

After some consideration, this was the approach I took. (I used ISPCCONF 
to update my ISPCNF00 configuration keyword file and ISPCFIGU load module.)


All is now working as before without requiring JCL changes or 
application changes...

There are as many schemes as there are vendors.
Some, like SAS, warn you.
Some, like SYNCSORT, give you a 30 day grace period.
Some, like PKWARE, stop you cold.

BTW, since I've never worked in a shop that used the smaller engines, can you 
upgrade the speed without adding more CPUs?
If you can, the response above was for adding more.

I assume the ISV's just upgrade their records and their fees.

 Interesting typo they made, W2 when they meant H1B.

Indeed.  Undoubtedly one of those pseudo-postings intended to prove
there aren't US citizens willing to work for the offered salary, thus
justifying an H1B visa.

Remember the lawyers video (IIRC, a link was posted in this forum some
time ago) teaching companies how to game the system to be able to hire
H1B's instead of US citizens?

Just another example of that, I fear.

Re: JES2 convert to dynamic proclibs in a MAS

2009-10-17 Thread james smith
Luke

Was playing with this in the sandbox a few weeks back.

Basically we changed the JES2 proc member - commented out PROC00.   Defined
PROC00 in the JES2 parms. member.  Then issued a $PJES2,ABEND followed by a
hot start on each MAS member.

If you are making the change in PROD you may want to hold your INITS while
you make the change.

Otherwise no issues to report

 Does anyone have experience converting JES2 from static proclibs to dynamic
 proclibs in a MAS?

 Do I need to bring down all members before restarting the MAS using the
 dynamic proclib definitions or can I warm start a single member with dynamic
 proclibs while the rest of the members continue to use the static proclibs?

 Are there any other issues I need to think about?

 Thank you,
 Luke Rabbe
