How are applications moved from the VS to COBOL ReSource?
Procedures, COBOL source program files and data files are moved from the VS to the COBOL ReSource platform, usually by one of the following methods: • A small RAID connected to both platforms (requires “generic” SCSI microcode on the VS and some hardware, available SCSI ID) • A Wang disk drive and a SCSI A/B switch (requires hardware, available SCSI ID) • A pluggable Wang disk drive (requires a small amount of hardware, available SCSI ID, but platforms can be at different sites) • Via Lightspeed (not suitable for large files; requires installation of a server application under Lightspeed on the VS) • Via VS TCP/IP (not suitable for large files; requires installation of a server application under TCP/IP on the VS) • Other methods when none of the above is feasible Programmers (yours or ours) then work with the files in COBOL ReSource to compile the programs, verify operation of the procedures and programs, and make any adjustments required.
