With great distaste (V7 is out of service for a year now) - can I have a look at
complete apply log?
Sorry, the apply isn't active when asnastop was started so there are no
messages in the app and trc files. In fact, nothing is wrong besides the
RC returned. Why should ASNASTOP return RC = 4240584 after an
informational message is displayed?
The issue of running with old versions is caused by IBM license changes.
When running a TxSeries/COBOL/DB2 application on Windows just take a
look at the changing license fees over the years and then you know why
customers don't like to upgrade.
When we started with these products a TxSeries license was based on the
numbers of users. With only a couple of users per server on 140 small
Windows servers you get a major jump in license costs when the license
is changed to server based. Our customer didn't want to pay for newer
software with costs rising with 1000% when it doesn't add functionality.
