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: The total number of tape drives does not increase.
Note 3: OnelineisusedbyOperationsConsoleifselected.
Note 4: There must be one CD-ROM per system.
Note 5 Because only three controllers and two towers are allowed on the SB3, a maximum of four HSL ports and two
HSL loops are usable to attach towers. Other ports and loops are usable for clustering only.
