Re: Advanced Job Scheduler

Hi Aaron

Recently you've had several posts about setting up various things on a new server - is my memory still working?

Do you really want a Pick-A-Part kind of thing (hope the analogy is reasonably a close one!) for setting up a new machine, getting the dependencies right and all? Yes, BP's have an application that has those rules in it. Considering how it seemed you're a fair distance from setting up a box - you do have those pix of you saying Giddy-up! on a 520, IIRC - it seems that you would not want something like the Amazon thing, etc.

Now some things ARE being done differently - ACS is available for trial with a simple download - and updates similarly simple to get. RDi updates can be done by changing a repository in Installation Manager.

So, as you said, I believe it really depends on what you're ordering - hey, I bet there's someone out there that would like a partner to make the setup for production-level SQL Server boxes, right? Sure, we can get some of it altogether for working on in our spare room, but for depending on these things for our businesses, well, we probably need help or highly-certified people in our companies.

Just random thoughts - JMNSHO!

Maybe there are some products that should be purchased/installed via shopping cart and others require BP intervention? Jim mentioned there are much more complex situations. Maybe somebody could expound so I am no longer ignorant? Aaron Bartell litmis.com - Services for open source on IBM i On Wed, Mar 30, 2016 at 8:52 AM, Rob Berendt <rob@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
