I can't comment about Pipes, because on AIX I just use what's built into
the o.s., but as for REXX, it's there! We just bought a copy two weeks
ago from IBM Direct for about USD 200.00. It's very close to the OS/2
version, and seems to work well. I haven't integrated it into ADSM since
our one ADSTAR server runs on MVS, but I can tell you that REXX/6000 does
support the RXQUEUE function and execution of external commands. It's
got a couple of annoying omissions (like wanting you to use upper-case
filenames for command scripts and not as many built-in functions as the
OS/2 version) but it looks good so far. FYI, FWIW...

Your right. Sorry. Both VM and MVS support TCP/IP and ADSM on those
platforms runs as well as on AIX.
Now ... the question at hand is: "when is VM going to get Version 2!!!!!"
... joe.f.
p.s. but VM has PROPLOG and with Rexx and Pipes I'm "having a lot of fun"
(read: being productive) writing ADMIN tools for ADSM.
