THAT is the root of the argument. PSI says they are a PCM (Plug Compatible Mainframe). That is the same term used for Amdahl, etc. and was the subject of, and resolved by, historical lawsuits. IBM does not agree that 1) they are a PCM, or 2) this has been resolved in the past. Tony Thigpen

It appears from the manual that AUXPROC is involved BEFORE the I-O. That would work for backup, but not for restore which needs to update the record after the I-O. So you would have to replace all the I-O, not just front-end it. Tony Thigpen -Original Message - From: Thomas Kern
