That doesn't sound too reasonable to me. The ERP software (I assume) is
driving the business - your code does other things like reporting or
whatever. Can you just buy the existing code? IANAL, but I would be
reviewing the contract to see what your rights are.

We cannot seem to work out a mutually beneficial way to move our ERP
software up to a new IBM Systemi Server.
If I understand correctly, NOT licensing our ERP software on the faster IBM
server models will render all the vendor programs run from the standard
vendor ERP menus unusable.
We have for years now been modifying a large percentage (40-50%) of these
ERP programs (modifications have been made to the original RPG source code).
In addition, we have developed several major 'bolt-ons' - using just the
existing file structures and LANSA for the WEB. We are investigating the
possibility of dropping all the ERP menus and programs entirely, if/when
moving to the new server.
I am asking the group for a 'reasonableness' check on the possibility of
this approach.
