I saw Hp folk being laid here, was sad as I knew most of them...In common? were over 50, and were old HP Team not ex DEC...
HP hasnt finished making mistakes... The first big one was the abandon of PA-RISC...
Because of that, we have no more HP srvers here... I can hardly justify my position anymore, thanks I know a little more so now I do mostly SAS integration on AIX and help when I can on AIX Solaris and Linux...
If you want to stay as sysadmin, the easiest for you would be to integrate an AIX team as AIX (IMHO) is the closest in terms of management/administration to HP-UX, and you could be efficient quite fast as smit is more powerful than sam and a good help when you know what you are doing/looking for but dont know all the commands
