Re: CPU ID display incorrect?
It's SOP for vendors who issue CPU-based keys to require notification of upcoming hardware changes in order to generate new keys. One particular vendor demands to see the results of 'D M=CPU' for *every individual LPAR* on a box. I can't tell you how supremely irritating this is. For a typical push-pull installation, we can't even IPL all (or often any) LPARs on a new box until Big Bang day when everything has to work ASAP. At that point the product in question will not run at all. (This one has no grace period.) Furthermore, on our DR box, most LPARs do not run at all except during DR tests. Again, the product will not work at all until we play the vendor's key game. Advice to vendors: if you force your customer to manage without your product for some time, you run the risk of demonstrating how to manage without it forever. . .

Re: What! Mainframers hate mainframes??
I was immediately struck by this statement: '[T]hey surveyed 500 IT decision makers...' So who among the members of this forum would count him/herself as an 'IT decision maker'? I may get to toss in my two cents on hardware choices--how much memory on the Z box, say--but the crucial highest level decisions like future architecture are made entirely by folks with zero mainframe experience or--maybe even worse--a long ago stint as a console jockey. How about asking real techies in 500 IT organizations how much they fantasize about escaping the grip of Microsoft? . .

Re: What! Mainframers hate mainframes??
Indeed, as others have noted (and Eddols did in his conclusion), this is pretty
clearly specious in that the premise ("mainframers hate mainframes") is not
supported by the survey, because the report misrepresents the surveyed
population as "mainframers".
If we look at the bullets dispassionately:
*94 percent would consider moving off the mainframe
Anyone who would not CONSIDER moving off the mainframe is incompetent.
Consideration does not imply action. There are plenty of uses cases where z
makes no sense, of course.
*77 percent say their organization should have already started the
mainframe migration/modernization process to avoid being at risk
Undefined. Migration from 9672 to z14? Sure. "Modernization" as in "moving
off"? Maybe. But as written, meaningless.
*71 percent say that the inflexibility of their mainframe limits the
ability of the IT department to innovate
*shrug* "You say that like it's a negative thing". "Innovation" is not
unequivocally a good thing.
*81 percent are concerned by the potential skills gap between their
organization's mainframe teams
Gibberish. Between the mainframe teams and what??
*50 percent say that IBM is more focused on Watson and cloud
technologies than the mainframe
Well, yeah. So?
If you replace "mainframe" with "insurance" you can make many of the same
arguments. But I don't see most people dropping insurance.

Discussion about IBM SW Excel withdrawal
I seem to remember a recent IBM-MAIN discussion about IBM withdrawal of SW EXCEL or some portion thereof, and alternatives for the different services such as APAR search. I can't find either the IBM-MAIN discussion or the IBM announcement that started it all. My boss asked about our budget amount for SW EXCEL and I'm trying to follow up, but I seem to be search impaired today. Much obliged if anyone can point me to either one or both of the above items.

He is two timezones away and was telling me that I can't be reading the sticker on the frame correctly because of what the D M=CPU was showing.
