Re: DB2 Multisystem -- holy $%&#

Well with our existing software, my largest file is

One addition I'd asked for was DB2 Multisystem (5770-ss1 option 27).

Are you kidding me IBM? One LICPGM cost more than the rest of the OS?

That's just nuts.

Mainly just venting, as I don't expect this post do solve anything.
