I've run each product at different times but never did a conversion. But to me there's one overriding consideration: is all shared DASD within a parallel sysplex? In other words, are you converting to GRS star? If so, go for it. If not, beg your boss not to make you do it. MIM has some big advantages over GRS ring mode, which is far harder to manage, including less dynamic and more prone to serious and far-reaching disruptions.
There's nothing that beats GRS star, but if that is not doable, you're better off staying with MIM. I've heard that advice from IBM account reps! . . .
