Is anyone out there running a TSM Server on a dedicated Sun F6800 machine?
We are sizing our servers for replacement and in sizing IO Requirements with
Sun, TSM, and Storage Tek, we're being directed at the F6800 (which almost
seems like overkill to me) by our vendors.

I was thinking that the V880 or V1280 would be where they would end up
putting us, but the costs of a couple of V1280's or one F6800 with two
domains seem to be about the same.  So, is anybody out there using a very
large machine like the F6800 dedicated to its existance as a TSM server, and
are you experiencing any problems with them?

Normally, I have worked with large RS/6000 AIX machines but my current
company doesn't like AIX, so I'm running with the Solaris bulls now.

Thanks,
