ASM2 was a Cambridge product, Cambridge was acquired by UCCEL at about the same time that SKK (ACF2) was. Cambridge had the exclusive marketing rights to the SKK product line in the US at the time. UCCEL was then acquired by CA about 6-9 months later. Wayne Driscoll Product Developer JME Software LLC NOTE: All opinions are strictly my own.

There used to be a product (it may still exist for all I > know) that was a competitor to IBM's DFHSM ASM2 was eventually acquired by CA and become CA-DISK, then Brightstore CA-DISK, and now CA Disk Backup and Restore. I think there was an intermediate acquisition that I have forgotten about. -- Bruce A.
