RE: Final word on TSM and V5R4 of i5/os

["Crump, Mike" <Mike.Crump@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rob,

I think I've said something via email to Mark.  I know that Chris will
be down here on 4/12 to meet with Mark.  Perhaps with him, I, and Darryl
P. in a room we can reiterate.

I attended a ITIL Tivoli thing in NYC a few months ago and put the lack
of OS/400 support as a barrier to further implementations on their
questionnaire.....of course I never heard squat back.

The issue I have is that we are light users of Linux and in all honesty
the thought of becoming heavy users is not something I look forward to.
I'm not bashing Linux (at least in this thread), it's an issue of time,
people, and cost.  And there is always a cost associated with
implementing new servers or partitions.  It's not something we take
lightly - I argue with my boss constantly about limiting partitions and
servers.  Just because you can do it doesn't mean that you should....

I wonder if we should try to bring together more people who have an
issue with this....for those attending Common and possibly something
beyond that?

Mike

Mike,

I don't know.  You can bet that my boss has talked to Mark about it 
already.  I think my boss is about to accept defeat.  If he can find
more 
who care...
