Re: iSeries Nav?

[Aaron Bartell <aaronbartell@xxxxxxxxx>]

I haven't tried to get iNav working with WINE or Crossover and instead rely
on VirtualBox to do that.  I really wish IBM would come up with a *good*
browser based admin tool.  I emphasized good because I just got a spankin
new POWER6 520 and "IBM Systems Director Navigator for i5/OS" is slooooooow.
 I haven't even been able to see all of the features yet because I click a
link and wait for literally 1 minute and then go and do something else while
I wait.  The kicker is that I go to WRKACTJOB and don't see the *ADMIN jobs
taking up that much CPU.  So it is hanging somewhere in the application.
 jeeeeeuuuunk I say! :-)  If I were IBM I would be embarrassed by how poor
the performance is.
