... Hercules is QPL, not GPL. I do not know whether QPL is CDDL-compatible. This indeed may prevent a Linux device driver that uses DIAG 2A8. I don't know,...
Hi gruop.... Is there any DB2 free version available for hercules...... if yes where can i found it and if no ...isn't there any sort of free database...
... Not that I know of. Note that you must have an operating system running under hercules first. I have been tinkering with the thought of migrating MySQL...

Since the native file system on the PC is, in a word, FBA, is there any performance advantage in Herc, or any other advantage, to using FBA drives instead of...
