RE: SQL Reporting Services

<snip>
I appreciate the offer for assistance. However, all I really need is
just
the syntax expected by the Dataset to call an iSeries stored proc. Would
it
be possible for you to post an example of that?

Ok, I think I understand the problem.

You create the dataset as stored procedure and just put the stored
procedure name in the Query string. For example:

mapdba.qa_supplier_performance

Mapdba is the library where stored procedure is at.

Reporting services builds the string based on the parameters it finds in
the stored procedure.

windows backup.

it is based on shadow copy, which looks to be save while active for

the IFS.

Shadow copies are generic volume snapshots, they are not directly a
backup technology. i5/OS still can't do generic volume snapshots on the
IFS, or even in the Database (a feature i've been really missing).
Windows Backup just uses Shadow Copies as a backend mechanism to ensure
consistent backups.

In a corporate setting, you don't need to backup desktop machines anyway
(just redeploy the base image, all data is on the server). I've been
using the Vista Backup program at home, and i've had the main system
hard drive fail - the restore worked flawlessly. This can't be said
about earlier versions of ntbackup.

We have had a limited vista deployment since about a year (Techies
running Betas), and are now rolling out vista to our sales/marketing
staff - we haven't had problems so far, and UAC is a very good thing
since it allows using legacy applications without too much effort, but
limits privileges for new applications.

I haven't had any killer issues with Vista - the only thing that IBM
really screwed up is iSeries Access, which still hasn't all kinks ironed
out - but it's typical for IBM to lag a year behind, technology wise.

(That's why the 515 and 525 still doesn't have 2.5" SAS drives).
