I note ( http://www.hercules-390.org/hercfaq.html#2.02 ) that you are still propagating the hoary old "disaster recovery" myth. I thought we'd laid that one to rest. Also, if you make an illegal copy of IBM's (or anone else's) software it is the LICENSEE (i.e., your employer) who will be held responsible and perhaps asked to pay.
I'm sorry for the link length, but this is IBM's EXPLICIT ban - this one for SMP/E: http://www-03.ibm.com/software/sla/sladb.nsf/b7db13a535a154a8862567310052aebd/bd755a9332afee2f87256b820060aea5?OpenDocument&Seq=1 Use the radio bullet for IBM LIcense Information Document". This document EXPLICITLY bans copying SMP/E to a PC or home computer. The crucial text is: ======================================================== LICENSE INFORMATION The Programs listed below are licensed under the following terms and conditions in addition to those of the International License Agreement for Non-Warranted Programs.
