The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

I've seen one package blow that tried to check your Java level by reading
the description of the LPP for java. Between 7.1 and 7.2 that changed it

dropped a lot of hardware.
Failure to follow the MTU will corrupt your database cross reference
files.
If you are API phobic and rely upon OUTPUT(*PRINT) and then CPYSPLF then

AnyNet dies. Must use Enterprise Extenders (if you still want to stick
with SNA).
Certain TCP Pascal APIs are gone.
TCP should be ended before ENDSBS *ALL.

commands.
