Hi All,

Good day. I needed expert advise on how do we calculate the numbers (effort 
estimation ) provided that we have the infrastructure that we support. Assuming 
that I have the below:

1) # of LPARs.
2) # of ISV products.
3) Automation on z/os on all LPARs.
4) Storage 
5)MIPS 
6) # of CICS regions
7) # of DB2 subsystems
8) MQ regions 
9) # of WAS
10) # of IMS subsystems 

etc.

I understand that different shops have different strategy in calculating the 
same. However I needed valuable inputs on how to start estimating. Is there any 
industry standard or best practice available. How are shops deducing #'s given 
the infrastructure that is available.

I really appreciate all your inputs in this regard. Please let me know for any 
further information required from my end. Thanks.
