Take care, Greg -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Knutson, Sam Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2010 12:03 PM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Re: Leap frog from z/OS 1.7 to z/OS 1.11 You might consider mitigating the risk by getting assistance from one of the folks who specialize in unsupported upgrades. We have never needed to do this upgrading every year but Brian Westerman and Syzygy are well recognized around here as subject matter experts in this space. http://syzygyinc.net/contactus.aspx There are other consultants who could help as well.
