South System:  The End is Near—It's Time to Move to Titan

The merging of the OS/390 North and South systems into a single, standard system—Titan—is almost over. South application owners have been testing and moving their applications.

South System Customers Should Move by December 2003

CIT plans to shut down the South system in late 2003/early 2004. South customers should migrate their production applications to Titan now. If you have not begun testing, you should begin this process now. It is vital that you not wait until the last minute.

South system users should review the articles Overview of Changes for South Customers and How to Begin Your Migration to Titan to prepare for their move to Titan. Further information is available on the Titan Transition Web pages.

DB2 and IMS application owners	Contact your CIT DBAs for assistance in establishing a test environment and in migrating your files.
Other application owners	Contact TASC if you need assistance

CIT is ready to assist South system customers with their migration issues.  So don't delay, contact us today.
