Just speaking form my Y2K testing experience.... You are inviting
problems with future dates on current systems.  We had to do a complete
reinstall of SAS because we did what you describe on a real system (not
an emulator).

Subject: IPL with future date

We have a FLEX-ES box with a number of instances (sort of like lpars)
and I would like to ipl one of the instances with a date some time in
the future to do some testing.  However, that instance would "touch"
catalogs from our "production" instance which would be running with the
current date.  Is this a recipe for disaster or will I get away with it.
