6025.0. "CA, Cheyenne, netware to Alpha refernces" by hickstop.rtp.dec.com::TimHicks ([email protected]) Wed May 21 1997 15:25

I have a large manufacturer that is looking for Alpha-NT references.

Specifically they want to talk to someone (informally) that has 
used/is using:

	* Cheyenne backup on Alpha-NT

	* CA-Unicenter on Alpha-NT

	* migration of Netware users to Alpha-NT for file and print 	  
	  services.

Again, this is to promote NT on Alpha.  Customer is dubious.
Any and all pointers appreciated.

>        * CA-Unicenter on Alpha-NT

They don't want to talk to anybody about CA-UNICENTER on Windows NT, Alpha or 
otherwise. Trust me.

6025.3Some pointers ...OTOU01::MAINNSIS Consultant,Canada,621-5078Mon May 26 1997 06:3426
    Tim,

    Not sure about the Cheyenne or CA references (don't know if CA has any
    major NT wins for that matter as they are extremely expensive ..), but
    in the case of Alpha NT :

    Digital has a huge world wide Exchange NT implementation based primarily
    on Alpha NT with some smaller Prioris's kicking around as well..We just
    recently topped the 40,000 user mark world wide.
    
    Other big Customers doing Alpha NT and Exchange (E-mail is usually a
    very high priority item in most companies) : Attached also have
    the Microsoft header on the press releases, so add's more weight
    than one from Digital promoting Digital ..
