Cost of mainframe DASD storage

Post by Gurugars » Thu Jun 26, 2014 6:33 pm

Hi All,

I am working on some cost saving activities , part of that I am removing some unwanted piece of codes present in many libraries. Now I would like to know how much I am going to save by reducing the space usage.

Please help me with what ever you know/ heard about the cost of mainframe space. I am going to use this for projecting my savings as an approximate value.

Also I would be very thankful if you could share the info on what basis they will collect the amout like x$/Month or x$ for usage of this much space.


I may reach out to my storage team and MAY get the information, but I would get loads of questions and I should go through proper channels to reach them. Also they are not kind like you to understand my situation :wink:

Please help me out.

Thanks
Guru
