Dear List I am in search of information on typically how many system programmers and system administrators would be required, on an average, to support say 100 MIPS. It is not that I am specifically looking at 100 MIPS installation, but rather I want to extrapolate this number (if possible linearly) to estimate the number of sysprogs and sysadmins required to support a site of any size - say X MIPS. I know the number of sysprogs and sysadmins at different sites varies even when comparing sites of the same size. Nevertheless I am looking for a rough ballpark number.
I also understand this number is a function of the subsystems installed at a site. For e.g. x number of DB2 sysprogs & x' sysadmins + y number of IMS sysprogs & y' sysadmins + z number of CICS sysprogs & z' sysadmins etc. So what I am after is - on an average how many sysprogs + sysadmins (z/OS, DB2, CICS and IMS) are typically required to support on an average say 100 MIPS? Thank you in advance.
