Using Linux on S/390 or mainframe this can be done. Off course depending
on your exact needs. The best solution is probably using VM or LPAR's to
divide the task between a number of servers, and not use one big server.
For references you should check IBM's Linux website, they already have
done Samba on Linux/390. (ibm.com/linux)
Kind regards,
