Dawn,
Thanks for the suggestion, but you say "Move to DFS" as though that
were a simple and reasonable thing to do. How many sites within IBM
(which don't have to worry about multiple platforms) have moved to
DFS?
Last time I checked, there were significant pieces of AFS
functionality missing from DFS. I suspect that the platform support
is very uneven too. Licensing cost is another big factor.
I don't expect to move to DFS for several years.
Maybe I'm wrong. Is there a DFS progress report somewhere?
