Hello Alan,

With the UltraQuest and CA-VMWEBGATEWAY products, we are
accessing VSE VSAM data directly from z/VM 5.3.

You can't access VSE VSAM data directly from z/VM.  While the underlying

tech in CMS VSAM is VSE VSAM, the API is OS VSAM.

Perhaps you can use the new DB2 Server for VSE and VM 7.5 client feature

to let CMS reach over to VSE?

That's for sure.  :-)

Hello Jim,

Sorry I meant to say that you would need to use the
VSE/Connectors and other tools that are supplied from IBM.

Ed: VSE/ESA and z/VSE do not (and never have) supported JAVA.
They both supply JAVA code, but that runs on other platforms
such as Linux and talk to applications on VSE.

Hello Franz,

I was in fact thinking of VSE/Connectors when I made that
statement.
I have the HealthChecker, Navigator, Connectors, VSEISRTool, and
MIL4VSAM.

I think of these tools as part of the VSE/ESA support.

I understand that z/VSE does not directly support JAVA itself.

Thanks to all that have corrected my statements.  (I do get into
trouble for not explaining well enough).

neither VSE/ESA nor zVSE support JAVA itself. There is the so called vse

connector connector client which are java classes to connect to vse 
resources like VSAM files from outside, if you have configured and 
started the connector server on vse. Applications like vse navigator or

Hello Alan,

This is salesman talk.  I am trying to get more info from him.
We are running UltraQuest directly on z/VM and accessing VSAM data.

As with most salesmen, he has no idea what we have but still
wants to sell.

I am thinking more of from the Client end, Access SQL server 
Non-VM and VSAM data under z/VSE using Connectors or directly from z/VM.

I do need to get this gentleman to explain more.

This statement is unclear.  Exactly what Oracle and SQL server did you 
develop your Java for?  Are you talking about server side Java apps? Or 
are you talking about just needing compatibility in the server so that 
your client-side Java apps can talk to it (i.e. JDBC).

If you're running these databases run on Linux, not CMS, the lack of
Java 
support in CMS doesn't matter.

For all intents and purposes, IBM no longer supports Java
under VM, by which I mean Java running in a CMS virtual
machine. The Java support that IBM did ship with VM is now
horribly out of date, not to mention out of service as well.

If you need to run Java applications on VM, the preferred
method is to run them on a VM guest Linux system.

I  believe that most of that material is now out of date, as
well.
