According to IBM, AIX outperforms Linux on the same box between 5% to 10%.
Maturity, flexibility and reliability of AIX and POWER architecture in my
opinion make it a far better choice for such a critical service. (I am not
against Intel)
I wonder why you don't configure lan-free scenario instead
ocal disks instead of SAN disks for all of the TSM servers after
that.

I see your point on the hardware side, but what about all the various
flaky driver issues with Linux. Would it be reasonable to consider
Intel/Solaris to get an industrial strength OS on commodity hardware?
Where's AIX for Intel when you need it!
