Ahh I love a good religious war....;-)

I have found that in the various TSM installations our company has
across the world, the of AIX/IBM hosts are more stable and better
performing servers. They also seem better able to sustain higher rates
of I/O than the other platforms.

The other OS/host combinations we have are Sun/Sparc, Win/Intel,
RHLinux/Intel.

The downside is that AIX/IBM expertise is hard to find especially
overseas, and for that reason we have the Sun/Win/Linux installations at
our other sites.

Subject: Windows vs. AIX Server

Hello all,

I just wanted to get some opinions on which people prefer, having a TSM
Server on a Windows server or AIX. Currently our TSM environment is on
AIX and I just wanted to know if it is worth while to migrate to a
Windows platform. Thanks

Greg
