All this without DASD! Also stated was:
7. IBM tells you for z/VM's DFSMS/VM you need ISPF/VM for $25K (was ($50K) and it is not true for cheaper DIRMAINT ($1K S&S) provides same functions. We are heavy users of DFSMS/VM and do not use DIRMAINT. Just what functions of DFSMS/VM does IBM say DIRMAINT does? I think I am having a problem comprehending that statement. If one is using the RMS function of DFSMS/VM and not SMS, would you also need some sort of tape manager too?
