Future Plans

This document lists some of Software AG's future plans for Entire Net-Work.

IBM has announced that it will not support ESCON CTC channels in the future. It is Software AG’s intention to support the ESCON CTC as long as we can. However, over time we will be upgrading our own hardware which may eliminate our ability to test ESCON CTCs. Therefore, at some point in the near future Entire Net-Work will no longer be able to support ESCON CTCs. We recommend that you familiarize yourselves with IBM's plans for ESCON channels and with their ESCON to FICON migration solution. For more information, read Important IBM Hardware Announcement.
