I'm saying that the IBM Program License Agreement does not allow for
disaster recovery testing in any manner. Any understanding IBM may have with
Sungard has no bearing on that issue; a user of licensed IBM software is
violating the terms of his license is he uses any other system, be it owned
by Sungard, the user himself, or any other party, to do disaster recovery
testing. Since IBM does not go after people for violating their license in
this manner - in fact, they recommend that people do so - it follows that
IBM does not strictly enforce the terms of its license, at least in that
regard.
