RISC 6000 & AIX

[nigel at cmsfl]

We are currently a large user of UNIX SYS V.2 and are in the process
of migrating to V.3.

As well as this we are also considering a second set of systems
which may be RISC 6000s running AIX.

Does anyone have any general comments to make regarding AIX
versus SYS V.3 (probably been done to death but my news
history only lasts two days) especially considering they may be
linked together in our environment with NFS.

What I'm after is really the problems we would face linking the
two up and also developing applications which would run under
both.  Also difficulty in moving data between them using
streaming tape etc.

A bit open ended I suppose but any comments (almost any ;-) would
be appreciated.

Regards
