Kindly advise.
If one has to migrate from an
IBM mainframe 2064 MIPS to a Sun then:
which would be the appropriate Sun Fire and
how many CPUs would it need to have?

Hi!

Whell I don't know anything about IBM mainframes, but try to chek:
http://www.sun.com/datacenter/mainframe/, there is a lot of stuff about
migrating from Mainframs to Sun.
And I can see there is a comparson of IBM Mainframs to Sun Fire serveres
at: http://www.sun.com/servers/highend/s...rformance.html

I hope it will help You

Greetings from Denmark

Personally, I would have thought that for a job of this size, Sun would
have provided appropriate consultancy/presales support.
