Andy, What kind of chpids do you have and what kind of cards are in the EMC boxes (or that you can get to put in them)? Then, how are your tape drives attached? ESCON is slower than FICON is slower than FICON Express is slower than FICON Express 2. The limiting factor is the speed of the slowest component. We have been able to sustain throughput of over 100Meg/sec, but all our tape and disk is FICON Express, and all our directors and connectors can support that speed. It just depends on what you've got to work with.
