Laura, >>They were significantly uphelpful and when I questioned their methods >>and security (and lack of apparent concern for mine) >>I was told they didn't need my business. Obviously they didn't get it. I have dealt with Help Systems sinc 1988 and have encountered someone who was helpfull and understanding of other 3rd party software. I even have my own paging app that they worked with me to function with robot and the other products. They NEVER tried to force me into alert. >>Incidentally, they write IBM's fully blown job scheduler as well as >>BRMS. I've looked at it (the job scheduler), and it's very robust and >>flexible. Besides sounding like a plug for a business partner, the scheduler of choice (and paging, and message monitoring, and job accounting, etc, etc) within IBM's own Global Services (the artist formerly known as ISSC) is Robot. The north region in Rochester,NY includes the AS/400 Center of Competency which performed the evaluation and relies on the Robot products. As for backup management, the standard IS BRMS but most of the customers have LXI instead and don't have much need to change. Soapbox(*OFF) Also FYI-don't let the employer fool you, up until last month, I was a real IBM employee @ Global Services John John W.
