Hi together,

at the time I am struggling with our Net-people, because of the future
layout of our ATM-Net.

The Net-people try to convince me, that an own ADSM-infrastructure,
which mean an own ADSM-net would give me better performance and less
impact to the users an vise versa.

My opinion is, that giving money to a more powerfull shared net would
give more benefit to users and ADSM. the motto is "1 and 1 give more
than 2"

We are running ADSM on OS/390 2.6 and have as Clients NETWARE with 250
GB, SAP/R3 300 GB, Domino-Servers 50 GB and so on.

Do you have a dedicated Backup-backbone and/or an own net-adapter or do
you backup over the same net as your users work?

Any thoughts pro or again an own ADSM-Net would be apriciated.
