Numbers of servers means very little. What kind of network attachment infrastructure. What do the clients have? How much data on the clients? What is the backup windows? How any copy pools for offsite and onsite recovery?

The clients are NT/Win2K and NetWare. The system must talk to the StorageTek 9490 - Powder Horn. I figured that among all the TSMers out there that have working RISC based systems that someone would already have specifications that I could quickly modify for my environment and then bid out. I would also like to know advantages and disadvantages for the different flavors of Unix and vendors. Also since I work for a local government keeping the price low is a must. Any help is greatly appreciated.
