We installed ADSM this summer on our new RS6000 SP.  We contracted with IBM
to have an ADSM expert to come in, configure it, and provide skills transfer
to me and a coworker.  I don't know how much this sort of thing costs.  Ours
was part of a huge contract with IBM for installing and configuring the SP
and all related software (DCE, DFS, HA, Netview, PSM, etc.).  I was very
happy with it and think I learned much, much more than I would have in a one
week course.

Hello everyone,

  We are seriously considering ADSM and will run it on an IBM RS6000 (AIX)
unix
server.  I need to send someone on the ADSM implementation course.  The
problem
is that the ADSM course by IBM is only available for the MVS platform for
the
next several months.
This places us in a very tight spot.

 Question. Because we'll be starting it up on a unix server, do you
recommend
that I send him on the MVS course anyways or do we stand to lose?  Which
course
did those of you who are running ADSM on a unix server get your training?
Please
help, I really would appreciate it.
