In Reply to: 50J and 60J - Whats the difference ? posted by [IP Address: 192.83.224.17] 'marty' on July 16, 2001 at 19:53:54 EST:
: 1. What additional frunctionality so we get in 6.0J that is not in 5.0J ?
: 2. Are we likely to make use of the functionality, given that we currently have no performance issues ?
: 3. What is the additional cost of implementing 6.0J over and above 5.0J ?
: 4. What impact on the project schedule would it have if we were to upgrade to 5.0J and not 6.0J ?
the additional functionalities of 6.0J are:
1. ABEZ-Split
2. Multiple Update Task
3. Supporting 24-hour operation
4. Using Parallel Sysplex under MVS
There are no different tapes for 5.0J and 6.0J. The 6.0J functionality is implemented but not activated. Therefore the additional work is to activate the 6.0J function.
There's no special activation manual for 6.0J but the 6.0I manual can be used for this purpose.
