XINFO x.x - Postponed
Following functions and features are postponed.
That means that we have stopped (or at least
postponed) further development activities.
•
File Transfer Scanner
•
RACF Implementation
•
XINFO DS Script Scanner
– Too many different solutions are on the market (Connect Direct, Universal Command,
FTP etc.)
– IBM offers many standard programs. New XINFO Administrator Manual has a section
that explains how to integrate these standard programs
– Security concerns
– No real need (means customer do not ask for it)
– A 100% solution like JUPIPO is not possible
– The DS File Contents is a good alternative, comparable to PO Scanner.
