Dave, good to see you here. Check out SAVE.RESTORE.AT, which is freeware that I published recently on my site (http://Nebula-RnD.com/freeware). It allows you to save/restore entire accounts between any MV systems through AccuTerm. That completely eliminates the tape issue. I just did a R83/D3 migration and this will help for R83/jBase as well.
I’ll be happy to answer questions about the freeware but it would help if requests for in-depth assistance were framed in a services engagement. If you wish, I will be happy to manage the data migration aspect of your client’s effort, and you can assist with the details of code conversion, etc. I'll be happy to provide more info here or via email about how the utility works.
