Rick, Thank you for responding.
Indeed, compression might not be a solution. The problem arises because the s/390 is being re-sited, changing the client connections from a happy high capacity LAN to a slower and sadder WAN. The change has pushed up response times beyond the pain threshold. A number of other avenues are being investigated, but the compression exit scores high on 'can we try it and see today?' criteria. My hope is that my request about MO02 & clients throws up any gotcha's others wish to share.

Compressing the data may not be a solution.

We are considering using the MO02 compression exit on the server/client connection channels, to reduce network traffic. Does anyone else do this? Any problems we should be aware of? Many thanks for any replies.
