The 5220 would make a very good choice for a Solaris TSM server, we use them in
our environment and previously used the T2000's. They can handle large amounts
of I/O and have six PCIe slots for HBA cards and Gb Ethernet.

The 5220is on our mind. So should we use that or go for the M5000.

Subject: SUN CMT servers vs UltraSPARC for TSM
Hello, list.
We are speculating whether we should employ the latest CMT-server from SUN as
TSM-servers. The CMT-servers are many cores/many threads but each thread is
relatively slow(1,2/1,4 GHz) compared to Ultra Sparc(2,3Ghz).
My question is if TSM benefits from many threads or if we should go for single
thread performance. I guess expiration is a single thread process but that
depends mainly on IO. Maybe many simultanious client operations would benefit
from many threads. How about TSM version 6?
I really don't know here.
Any thoughts?
Regards
Hans Chr.
