Am planning an ADSM implementation with the ADSM server residing on
MVS,
however need to gain some understanding of MVS usage in order to plan
and
provision appropriate capacity.

Initial implementation will be with 11 ADSM clients, with a maximum
required
throughput of 60GB per hour. Network infrastructure is being designed,
but
assume will most likely be FDDI (100Mbps).

Would like to know if there are any implementations of ADSM using MVS
as the
server. If so, would like to understand details of ADSM implementation
(# of
servers, clients, network infrastructure etc), what is the volume of
data
being backed up (in worst hour), MVS resources (MIPS, memory, disk
pools)
being used. Would also be helpful if details of MVS environment were
provided, such as operating system version and release, hardware model
etc.
