Re: TSM vs V5R4

Hi Rob
I couldn't list any hard differences: my answer was semi tongue in cheek. Whatever the commercial advantages are to running AIX instead of Linux, then those are the advantages for running an AIX partition as opposed to a Linux partition. Cost will not be one of them ;)
Agreed re the disk, although as you have noted elsewhere a SAN is still an option for i5 hardware.
FWIW I understand your frustration, especially as running a TSM server on the iSeries would likely have taken some effort to get running (I went down this road for a customer on an 820 back on V4R5) so to have to throw that away and do something additional into the bargain would be a major pain.

Evan Harris

Any advantage to AIX over Linux for TSM?
And if I can't run it in i5/os, then why use expensive i5 disks?
