Re: AW: Tips for user ASP

Oliver--

As Someone mentioned, there's -no separation- just having their
libraries in ASP/2 while yours are in ASP/1!  It's just a physicallay
separate block of DASD.  Slip up on your library list, and you're
using 'their' data.

How are you going to separate their QGPL and QUSRSYS from yours?

The last time we had a separate ASP we were protecting the OS, back
before you could mix mirroring and RAID in a single ASP.

As that famous Someone also mentioned, the only -true- separation
would come from using LPAR and defining a totally separate system.
