ADSM Workshop in Karlsruhe

VERSION 0.2





                   2nd  ADSM  WORKSHOP
                     COMPUTING CENTRE
                 UNIVERSITY OF KARLSRUHE

                    APRIL  1/2 ,  1996

Following the workshop in March 1994, which focused on ADSM Version 1 and
attracted about 80 participants from German ADSM sites, we plan to organize
a second meeting. In this second workshop we can concentrate on the exchange
of experiences gained with ADSM Version 2 and also on general ADSM issues.
Several key persons from ADSM development have accepted an invitation to
attend the meeting:
     Paul Bradshaw, IBM San Jose, ADSM Development
     N.N., Storage Division
     Karen Dutch, IBM Hursley Park, ADSM early support program
     Achim Zink, IBM Mainz, ADSM development
     Michael Lindner, IBM Mainz, ADSM development

The first day of the workshop is intended for general sessions and reports.
On the second day we expect to run parallel sessions, covering the following
issues (and possibly others):
    - Requirements for Large Sites in Europe  (ALES)
    - Special needs for PC environments (Novell, etc)
    - Disaster recovery schemes
