IBM AS/400e server
General note: Capacities shown may require prerequisites. Some combinations of features
may not be valid.
Note 1: Commercial Processing Workload (CPW) is used to measure the performance of all AS/400 processors
announced from September 1996 onward. The CPW value is measured on maximum configurations. The type
and number of disk devices, the number of workstation controllers, the amount of memory, the system model,
other factors, and the application running determine what performance is achievable. With the introduction of
the Dedicated Servers for Domino, Simple Mail Users is added as a performance measurement.
Note 2: Processor performance represents the relative performance (maximum capacity) of a processor feature
running CPW in a client/server environment. Processor capacity is achievable when the commercial workload
is not constrained by main storage and DASD. Interactive Performance represents the relative performance
available to perform host-centric workloads. The amount of interactive capacity consumed reduces the
available processor capacity by the same amount.
On the Dedicated Servers for Domino, the Processor CPW is an approximate value reflecting the maximum
amount of non-Domino workload (10 to 15% of CPU) that can be supported.
Note 3: The total number of tape drives does not increase.
Note 4: One line is used by the Operations Console if selected.
Note 5: This interactive CPW value of 0 represents the amount of 5250 processing capability available for customer
applications. CPW=0 supports system administration functions performed by:
• A single interactive job
• Operations Navigator
• Any job submitted to batch
Multiple system administrators performing simultaneous tasks is not supported.
There is no Interactive Feature Code card for the base interactive #1516. Interactive performance is included
in the base. The #2248 comes with the #1517 only.
Note 6: There must be one CD-ROM per system.
Note 7: Processor Group is determined by a combination of the Processor and Interactive Feature. The following table
provides a cross reference.
