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? > I do need to get this gentleman to explain more.

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

I just thought z/VM should too. 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. Jim

Re: JAVA and Z/VM
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).

Re: JAVA and Z/VM
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. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

The Java support that IBM did ship with VM is now horribly out of date, not to mention out of service as well.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 have found a redbook VM/ESA Network > Computing with Java and NetRexx. > > I believe that most of that material is now out of date, as well.
