I am the systems programmer for DOS/VS/SP/VSE/ESA since 1968. We
process student records with CICS and VSAM files. We have also run
VM since 1984.
There are 14 universities in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher
Education (SSHE). Each university has it's own computer center but
the move is on to consolidate processing on a SAP system. Financials
and payroll have already been converted. Our university is
scheduled to begin using the SAP Campus Management in Fall 2007 but
I don't expect that it will be ready.
We run an 18 MIP FLEX-ES box. Since there is currently no plan to
move historical data to the SAP system we will downsize our FLEX-ES
box to 8 MIPS and run VM & VSE on ESL licenses for who knows how long.
