migrating ADSM from VM to AIX: machine 'costs'??
2015-10-04 18:07:24
I'm back! After a year of (un)doing MVS (phewtooie) :-)
I'm back in the "Academic" group here at UCB. So I'm back to
the care & feeding of our ADSM-on-VM system.
Now that ADSM (and AIX) are on HESC and our VM is scheduled for =
decommissioning
by the end of 1998, we want to migrate our ADSM from VM over to an AIX =
box.
We'd like to start out with the equivalent of what we've got/using on =
VM,
but in a configuration that has lots of head-room for growth:
We use:
1/3 of 2 9672-R42 processors,
4 3490 tape cartridge drives,
5 Gigs of staging disk and 10 Gigs of Database storage
? Gig for OS & support areas.
So we're thinking:
R6K-SP with 2 processors,
15 Gig of ? disk drives
4 ? tape transports
(capable of being put on a robot is a requirement)
(and for extra credit: what robot to use?)
So by machine costs I don't mean prices but some configuration =
guidelines
would be appreciated.
Comments ?
thanks .... joe.f.
P.S. I would just *love* to hear of an answer like:
"We're giving a presentation on that at SHARE"
so that I can go to Atlanta this summer! :-=3D)
