Identical Architectural Groups

The following lists show the Version 6, Version 7, and Version 8 hosts on which SAS/SHARE software runs. The lists are grouped on the basis of identical data representation. No data conversion is required in communications between any two hosts in the same group. When two hosts that are not in the same group communicate, conversion of at least one data type is required, and the restrictions and limitations described earlier in this chapter apply.

• CMS

• OS/390

• VSE

  Note:   VSE is a Version 6 host only.
