Re: IBM/SSA's Redbook -- BPCS-L

Hi Peter,

Is this redbook available?  When I go to the website to order the hardcopy
version, I get a e-shoppingbasket with the "Database Performance on AIX..."
redbook.

The eBPCS redbook is long overdue.  I'm looking forward to getting one.
(Does it also discuss modification techniques?)
