Our Multiprise 3000 was powered off this weekend. It had been
running z/OS 1.5 in one LPAR and VM in another. Most of the
applications on the "expensive mainframe" have been replaced by SAP
running on a combination of hardware (AIX/pseries and Winblows) which
dwarfs the "mainframe". For example, all the databases for our
administrative systems were previously about 30 gigabytes. This has
been replaced by a system consuming dozens of terabytes. Progress is
grand.
