IBM whines at my manager about it every month. And wants to increase our software bill for it because we have no SMF from it showing its usage. That's because it is __idle__. I just DEACTIVATED the LPAR. Maybe that will shut the money grubbers at IBM up. Yes, I'm upset. It's hard enough to keep the z here. Management wants a Windows monoculture. I would say more, but I'd get in trouble. -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT
