Nonchargeable Features Of Os/400 - IBM AS/400e User Handbook Manual

– Concurrent maintenance of I/O cards, power, expansion towers, and other
components is supported to reduce down time due to the failure of components in the
system.
For example, regarding concurrent maintenance of expansion towers, Hardware
Service Manager screens automatically correlate with an I/O card selected for an
MES or repair action to the expansion tower where the I/O card exists. The user
interface calculates and displays the other hardware resources in the expansion tower
that are affected when the expansion tower is powered off. Configuration objects
associated with affected resources are shown, which facilitates the process of ending
jobs or applications using the affected resources.
Concurrent maintenance is available for most IOAs.
– RAID-5 disk protection can be implemented with the use of a disk controller and at
least four disks to make up an array. Refer to "RAID-5" on page 343 for information on
how this is implemented.

AS/400 Client Access Express for Windows (#2603)
AS/400 Client Access Express for Windows (5769-XE1) is shipped at no charge with OS/400
V4R5 and V4R4 if customers have not acquired the AS/400 Client Access Family for
Windows product (5769-XW1). All functions of the Express client, with the exception of
PC5250 Display and Print Emulation and Data Transfer, can be used with the need for a
license for the AS/400 Client Access Family for Windows product.
Since Client Access delivers the OS/400 graphical user interface, it is necessary for AS/400
administrators and operators to use its Operations Navigator functions for working with
OS/400 setup, configuration, and day-to-day operations. A few frequently used operations
provided by Operations Navigator are:
• Management Central functions for distributing PTFs
• GUI for setting up Virtual Private Networks or the Integrated Netfinity Server
• Working with large objects
• Using the new datalinks command or the SQL Performance monitors that aid developers
in fine-tuning database applications.
Also included in Client Access is the Operations Console function, which enables operators
and administrators to perform system console functions from a Windows environment, either
locally or remotely. Highlights of these administrative capabilities are described in the
following sections.
