... Generally it is more a question, I think,
of whether the program is doing something that you would want run under
TSO, given the dispatching priority of TSO users, and some
The reason for the same FMID's is because while we are changing the release
number; it can be done with a simple maintenance upgrade. For example, going
from R5.2 to R11.0 or even to R11.5 does NOT require a complete new install
of the product. Instead, you can simply apply APAR's and/or PTF's.

Hi list,
Does anybody out there use BMC's Control-M Advanced FTP product? If so,
can you tell me just what the product does and what impact it has on
replacing standard FTP? I'm being pushed by mgmt to replace our FTP
with this and I can't figure out at first look just
Does the output have to be tape? Does it have to be written in ASCII
from the Cobol program?
What about doing OCOPY under TSO to a HFS file?

Extra, but I know PCOMM has an option to do screen prints in text or
graphic mode. In text mode, it just dumps the text characters, in
graphics mode it generated a graphic picture of the screen. Least to

OK! Don't
Dare I ask what was really gained in calling it R11.0 R11.5 vs just
different gen levels? It's not written anywhere, but I'd say most think if
the FMID is the same, it's the same release. Was the R11 just a marketing
mandate? It seems to be a common issue in a lot of CA products.
But then
Absolutely, SMS would get confused. Either use one SMS across all four
lpars or stay with one per lpar. The purpose of a shared COMMDS is to
communicate allocation activity between lpars to avoid allocation
collisions such as you envisioned. If you are going to share the usercat
across all lpars
