I understand RDT( Rational Development and Test Environment ) can run in windows or intel based flatforms
Any idea about RDT, whether DFsort can run on RDT with all features.
Regards,
Magesh |

Magesh_J,
Not really. DFSORT is a z/OS product and there is no equivalent product on the PC side.
I believe you can code a simple COBOL program using LPEX editor of RDZ with SORT verb which would sort the data for you. _________________ Kolusu

RDT is a z hardware emulator that runs only on Linux. DFSORT runs fine within it. The only place where Windows comes in here is that the front end (3270, RDz, etc) to the emulated mainframe can be on Windows. _________________ New members are encouraged to read the How To Ask Questions The Smart Way FAQ at http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html. |

No, it means a z/Arch emulator will run in a Linux environment.
One of the reasons for having the product is taking cost away from the Mainframe. There are other reasons as well.
However, you do have initial costs (hardware and software) and you have annual license fees.
Pay attention to the Terms and Conditions also. You can't handily run some Production job on it.
It is an emulator. Performance/volume testing will be impacted by the overhead of the emulation and the OS running the emulation. So for real, that stuff has to be on an actual Mainframe. |
