Hi,
I read a post on IBM-MAIN about storage migration fees:
When buying new DASD from IBM, often one can negotiate for the free use
of TDMF during migration.
Who has reference with FREE fees for storage migration?.

E:
I don't think you will find any documentation about this. When you buy
Dasd, you can negotiate anything, including the price for using TDMF for
a limited amount of time and a limited amount of TBs. that's how we did
it.
