I actually got the impression that it may just be a shop with a lot of
mixed old stuff to maintain.  If you are used to unix systems, the
variety shouldn't really be that bad to deal with.  The potential csh
versus ksh versus bash is a bit annoying, as is the BSD versus SysV
style of some commands.  But for the most part LVM is LVM and
virtualization is virtualization.  The p5 systems could be a bit tricky
for someone not experienced in ibm power systems, although an HMC helps
(but isn't required).

I don't think I read all of it, but I didn't spot any database admin
keywords, so at least that's good.  Those add a whole other level of
complexity to things.  Of course I could have just missed them.
