Re: Changing the controlling subsystem.

Rick,

I've not had any problems with changing the ctlsbs to QCTL after a
client's been under QBASE...

Things to keep in mind:  

Performance...how much memory do they have?  Can they afford the sbs
splitout that you're wanting to do?  IF not, you're gonna either be back
to QBASE or doing a hardware upgrade.  For a FEW SMALL SYSTEMS it's more
effecient to leave them in a QBASE config.

Also, I would chg the sbsd's of qinter and qctl to put dsp01 in QCTL by
definition...may be overkill for you..

AFTER you've made the change and IPL'd, check your SBSD's and JOBQ's to
make sure that the plumbing for the jobs is going the way you want it
to...shouldn't be a problem but a quick evil eye will make sure...

...hell, signon and run a few small jobs after the IPL...nothing works
like actual testing, but I don't think you're gonna have any problems...
