We are an HP shop now and run or DB's on HP Superdomes. Machines are
working really hard. Unfortunatly, we are having far too many hardware
problems and compare to another dept. that uses many Sun's we had more
h/w problems during last 6 months that they during last 3 years.
In addition, their MCSG cluster software is somewhat old and often
doesn't handle well lost of one node due to hardware pbms. In
addition, Veritas releasing HP-UX ports quite slow and lagging a lot
from Solaris. Also Veritas support for HP-UX is far from satisfactory.
One huge plus of HP is support. Our sysadmins claim that it's one of
the best supports.

Cheers,
Alex
