Well,
If you're going to "manage" devices (not sure what type of IP resources
you're talking about -- network or 390) ... you'll probably want to use NT,
just because other vendors (e.g. Cisco) have products for it. Plus I
believe
that PC memory is cheaper than 390 memory, as is the processor + disks.
Now, if you're talking solely 390 resources... that may be another question.
I'd go solely on the functionality provided.

Subject: [NV-L] Netview on os/390 vs Netview 6.0
HI List,
We are just starting a project to evaluate using Netview on OS/390
to manage our IP resources or to implement & use Net view 6.02 ( Platform
uncertain, possibly NT, maybe, maybe AIX) . Among the goals for this will
be to have the operators assume more control over the IP resources ( similar
to their current control of the SNA resources), and passing critical network
events to TEC.
Any thoughts on facilities that might be available one way or the other,
complementary nature or overlap of the products, etc. would be appreciated.
Thanks
Cathy Monblatt
