284.0. "ALL-IN-1 IOS V3.0 Upgrade Services" by NEWVAX::SHEINBERG (Reda,DCO,DTN:341-2387) Thu Mar 19 1992 22:05

	We are working on plans for providing an ALL-IN-1 IOS V3.0 UPDATE 
Service to the customers in Mid-Atlantic District.   We want to develop a
packaged service that we can offer to assure that our customers are
successful in upgrading as well as implementing the new features of
ALL-IN-1 IOS.  Is there anyone out there working on such a service that would 
like to share their ideas?  Please reply here or send me mail to 
Reda Sheinberg @COP or NEWVAX::SHEINBERG if you donot use ALL-IN-1 mail.

    Tony Redmond is working on something like this, I know since I'm doing
    some of the presentations.
    
    I think there's an EDU course being developed as well, isn't Steve
    Allerton working on that? He asks that sort of question!
    
    Also Atlanta (Terry Porter?) is developing some sort of course too.
    
    It occurs to me that, corporately speaking, we probably aren't being
    very efficient here...

    GAP,
    
    I don't think the situation is as bad as that since Steve sits less
    than a 50 yards from the people in the Atlanta CSC who are developing
    training and we do talk to each other and exchange course material.
    
    As for Atlanta and Engineering cooperating well ... (:==:)
    
    Reda,
    
    Perhaps if you could explain what topics you need help on that isn't
    covered by Steve's (and Bo and Leslie of course)  course we could help.
    
    I believe the titles are something like "ALL-IN-1 v3.0 technical
    Update", "ALL-IN-1 v3.0 Installation", "ALL-IN-1 v3.0 System
    Management" and "ALL-IN-1 v3.0 Application Programming" but i'll defer
    to Steve for the real titles and EY numbers.
    
    Regards,

284.3Well, I'll tryGLOVES::ALLERTONSteve Allerton 343-0205Fri Mar 20 1992 18:5724
    
    There are 2 "flavors" of the ALL-IN-1 Technical Update Seminar :
    
    Customers : EY-H963E-L0 (3 days)
    Internal : EY-I134E-L0 (5 days)
    
    They are not as yet finalized...(neither are the other courses)
    
    The ALL-IN-1 Installation Course (EY-I135E-L0) will only be 
    offerred to internal audiences.
    
    I might add there is/was some confusion over a global implementation 
    plan concerning the ALL-IN-1 Installation "service" offerring.  In 
    the V2.3 days, there was a FIP (Field Implementation plan) detailing 
    responsibilities and timelines for field service personnel who were 
    to perform the installation for customers.  The installation was
    performed as part of the DECSTART/DECSUPPORT service.
    
    There doesn't seem to be a FIP for ALL-IN-1 IOS V3.0 (please correct me 
    if there is).  From what I can understand, the local office will
    determine how the DEC-provided install services are to be provided,
    which might potentially involve the packaged service offerring.

284.4The Advanced, Wilder, V3.0 SeminarSIOG::T_REDMONDThoughts of an Idle MindFri Mar 20 1992 22:4025
    Our seminar, entitled "ALL-IN-1 V3.0 Advanced Technical Seminar", will
    be taught in:
    
    Valbonne, France, May 18-22
    Hong Kong, July 20-24
    Atlanta, U.S.A, August 24-28 (tentative date)
    
    The seminar was announced in the old conference. Lots of details there.
    
    The advanced seminar differs from the "regular" ES seminar because:
    
    1. It's wilder - after all, it's taught by engineers (who would pay
       good money to hear G. Pye speak?)
    2. We guarantee a good time in the wine bistros after class.
    3. We cover things like Code Level Integration and Advanced 
       Customization Management.
    4. We will only deliver it a maximum of 4 times.
    5. We cover non-ALL-IN-1 things like TeamRoute and SRA.
    6. We cover topics at a very fast pace.
    7. We plan to have a good time (again), and hopefully make a lot
       of cash for Digital.
    
    I can send you the ES announcement if you like.
    
    Cheers, Tony

alternative to this specialist seminar.
