AS/400 E35 series. Dating Solutions...

[Glenn Ericson <Glenn-Ericson@xxxxxxx>]

encapsulation  is a   quick  solution and  might work but it one  would be  hard pressed to complete before   CROW 01-01-00. Best case   Encapsulation solutions  [to  take  advantage of  Zone time and Real time processing] take 5  days without  user testing. Certainly it  can be  done BUT  again  look at the  time remaining and  the  likelyhood of  a crupted database at this  time

IF  on the other hand  you  are suggesting   running the system  in the past :
- this    would  suggest to your  business partners a  very  low  degree of  corporate image, and a  less than good  quality/reliability and professional image.  Id  be  real careful how    back dating the  system is utilized as a golden parachute solution or bridge.


Happy Holidays,

Glenn
