Watchdog V2.3, that goes into Beta in February, supports V4.0A.

As soon as we can get it typed up, I will be posting a beta and release
schedule for all the POLYCENTER products we sold to CA.

Re .2

Good news, Jim.
I have a customer who intends to upgrade his systems from Unix 3.2C to 4.0A.
He has the whole Polycenter product family and wants to know when it'll be 
ready for 4.0A.

Jim,
One of our customers wants to migrate to Digital UNIX V4.0B soon.  From the 
products sold to CA, they currently use Watchdog, Scheduler, Console Manager,
Performance Advisor.  I'm particularly worried about the Scheduler: I reported
two bugs (minor but annoying) and I cannot even get Digital to transfer the 
calls to CA!  Is the agreement for Scheduler that it will be supported as 
long as there's a demand as well?

Would you please let us know what info you have?  I'll happily take a fax if
re-typing it is the problem.

    (787.* has been seen...:-)
    
    Does anyone know if the Curtrent version of Watchdog (whatever it is
    that runs on Digital UNIX V3.2C) will actually work on V4.0B?  Has
    anyone ever tried it?
    
    My customer must upgrade to V4 very soon for new hardware support and
    would have to do a lot of work to change their system management
    interface.

I have not heard of anyone trying it, but I would tend to doubt that it would
run trouble-free.  There were some major changes made to the operating system.

    When your dealing with a bureau like the U.S. Dept. of Immigration
    and Naturalization it can take a while.
