System z administration is supposed to be getting easier. As it does,
the relative pay scales *should* go down, making System z more
competitive from a TCO standpoint.
I agree that System z administration is getting easier and I think that
is a good thing. The days of the typical MVS administrator wearing a
lab coat are over. And there is nothing inherent in this that prevents
technical pursuit. The repeated lamentation over this evolution and the
demonizing of IBM is old and only serves to illustrate a lack of adaptation.
