And PSR's.  Surprisingly the first PSR I ever knew (I was a DOS operator 
and he was helping us switch from GRASP to POWER) is now part of our DBA 
group.

Re: Changing Cobol Default Options






I don't have the answer but I know IBM is not going to be much help. It's
not a "defect," it's a "usability issue" and the only way IBM is going to
help is by sending over somebody from IBM Global Services at $$$/hour.

Ah, remember SE's?

Subject: Changing Cobol Default Options


I'm merging two lpars and, not surprising, there are some customization 
differences in COBOL and LE.  Most are easily changed and don't really 
affect how jobs run.  However I have two differences that concern me. 

LPARA (the sending lpar) has INTDATE=ANSI and LPARB (the receiving lpar) 
has INTDATE=LILIAN.   Also LPARA has OPT as the default for TRUNC while 
LPARB uses STD.  I've asked IBM about these but they just quote me 
sections of the COBOL manuals dealing with the options.  They don't say 
anything about what might happen when I change one value to another.
