Hello everyone, I have a question to ask of the group.
I currently have an IBM7060 H75 processor running OS 390 2.10. We are currently going into our sixth year of a two year phase out of the mainframe. Since everything is non supported management is looking into upgrading the processor to a 2096 R07 (F02) box and operating system to the latest ZOS version, since it now looks like it would be another two to three years before can be converted off. If I can come up with a list of jufitications for upgrading the processor and operating system. The system then might be taken off the endangered species list. 1. SOX hardware and software compliance. 2. All software will be vendor supported. 3. Installation of ZVM which would allow us to run LINUX on the box. 4. All new applications to be considered to on the platform. Thanks for any information that I can get. Frank W Sabo Jr SR.
