Hi,
I am interested in human / financial aspects of the introduction of 
Distributed Systems Management (DSM).

Just to give a short example of what I would like to analyze:
Without DSM a large company may need 10 persons to manage, say 500 
workstations.
Using DSM successfully, the company
  a) may either reduce the number of persons or
  b) these 10 persons may manage more workstations than before.

Does anybody has experience on this issue? I would really appreciate any 
information / figures on efforts (expenditures) and benefit (cost reduction 
etc.).

Besides, any links to WWW sites dealing with this topic are welcome.

Regards,

Mathias Leinmueller
