You know, All these Tivoli products ship with WAS and/or DB2 bundled inside of them. How come RACF and zSecure can't ship ISPF bundled within. Seems like the product would more useful that way :)

ISPF is required for - RACF panels (if you want them) - Tivoli zSecure - DFSMS/VM panels (if you want them) If you want ISPF to support these products and you are running on IFLs, a restricted-use Special Bid is available. (General ISPF/PDF use is not permitted on IFLs, as that would be "traditional CMS" workload, not Linux.) Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
