Speaking for myself only, I agree 100% with Phil. I HATE with a
passion mainframe vendor software with license keys, codes, all the
myriad ways they use to make my life difficult, adds work to my team,
and puts my company at risk if a vital piece of our infrastructure
fails for licensing problems.
If it was up to me, when we do our software evaluation process, any
product that has these restrictions goes to the bottom of the list of
products that we're going to look at.
Agreed.
Two points:
1. IBM does not use license keys. Even for products from aquisition.
2. Who do use mainframes? Usually large companies (*). I doubt that any
serious company would want to run unlicensed software.
(*) Exceptions apply. I know private person having parallel sysplex.
Just for fun. Legal. (very small machines, z/OS.e)
