>From what I know - a DS4800 storage box will not provide channel
attached ECKD disk. It's SAN FCP only.

>From the IBM storage group a DS6000 or DS8000 will provide channel
attached ECKD disk. If you don't get a database like configuration out
of your mainframe storage management people, your disk performance
will be bad. ie: if they give you a set of devices that are all
located on the same raid group in the back end.
