Operating System Engineering at a financial services firm with 1,001-5,000 employees
It gives us a consolidated management tool to keep track of the user directories on our z/VM platform.
We had an issue a few weeks ago in a test environment after putting an upgrade on, but we think it turned out to be that it wasn't really CA's fault. We think it's a problem with IBM and the GDPS product, and a test was being done with it the night before. It caused some weirdness with other products that we found out later, because it allowed two machines to get read/write access to a single minidisk, which never should have happened. That caused problems for CA but it wasn't really their product. We ended up on the phone with them for quite a while until we realised it was something else.
