We have two production systems on zserier Linux (Dept of Corrections and Board 
of Review).  A potential large tax system thinking about moving there.. plus 
thinking about moving Tivoli there...

Does anyone happen to know a ballpark figure of how many companies are 
using zSeries Linux??
 
My reason for asking is I am working on trying to convince the management 
here that we could
save tons of money by consolidating a lot of the easier workloads (ie- 
print servers) to zSeries
Linux.  One of the things I get back is "no one is doing it", although I 
have to think there is a lot 
of it being used, especially with todays economy as it is.
 
I think IBM has not done a very good job of promoting zSeries Linux, 
although from a marketing
standpoint they undoubtedly make more money with a room full of p-boxes 
than one or two z-boxes
running the same workload.
 
Thanks, 
Paul Adrian.
