IBM has three session managers, yes. IBM prefers you look at Session Manager for z/OS first since it's the "strategic" one:
http://www.ibm.com/software/htp/cics/smanag/ Version 2.1 was introduced this past September, so it's worth a fresh look if your knowledge is pre-2.1. (One major plus for me is that Session Manager is available in the Japanese language.) If you would like more information on migration assistance for Session Manager please contact Twila Brent ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and she can point you in the right direction. For the record there are two others. AFAIK there are no plans to discontinue the other two; they're still supported. One is CL/SUPERSESSION: http://www.ibm.com/software/htp/cics/clss/ which IBM acquired via Candle and added to the IBM catalog in 2005 (along with CL/CONFERENCE). The other is Tivoli NetView Access Services: http://www.ibm.com/software/tivoli/products/netview_as/ which enjoyed its most recent 2.1.1 update (up from 2.1.0) in December, 1997, and which is also still supported. There are many other products in this category, so please check the archives for a list. - - - - - Timothy Sipples IBM Consulting Enterprise Software Architect Specializing in Software Architectures Related to System z Based in Tokyo, Serving IBM Japan and IBM Asia-Pacific E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
