I understood. But it is a win-win.
1. SAP R3 uses lots of storage.
2. IBM can sell you lots of real storage.
3. IBM can sell you lots of channels and DASD so
you can exploit the z/OS 1.11 SADMP improvements to
dump that storage quickly.
And this maximizes the rate of transfer of money from you to us,
which is the objective of the data processing industry, isn't it? :-)
This has got to be an example of that "synergy" stuff that executives
are
always talking about.
