AS/400 system’s inception in 1988 with 64-bit AS/400 Power PCs microprocessors. Again in 2000 the AS/400e is leading the industry by delivering the first server with the new “Silicon-on-Insulator” (SOI) technology. SOI represents a fundamental advance in the way chips are built.
Page 39
The following figure shows this change of hardware processor technology and previews what is planned in future generations. More details can be found in “Logical Partitioning, Divide and Conquer” , by IBM Chief Engineer Frank G. Soltis, in the January 1999 edition (#224) of News400 .
What is future-oriented in the system? Does recovering from a failure typically involve a re-start of the hardware and operating system? What has your record been in the past few years as technologies have changed? We believe the IBM AS/400e system will be your number one choice.
AS/400 Advanced Application Architecture Technology-Independent Machine Interface The AS/400e system is atypical in that it is defined by software, not by hardware. In other words, when a program presents instructions to the machine interface for execution, it “thinks” that the interface is the AS/400e hardware. But it is not! The instructions presented to that interface pass through a layer of microcode before they are “understood”...

AS/400 system because of TIMI. Customers were able to save programs off their CISC AS/400 systems, restore them on their new RISC AS/400e servers, and the programs would run . Not only did they run, but they were fully 64-bit programs.
AS/400 System Architecture: Underlying Strength of the AS/400e V4R5 New Technologies The Silicon on Insulator (SOI) technology was applied for the first time for the AS/400e with V4R5. This technology is used by the ISTAR processors of the AS/400e. The transistors are built within and on top of a thin layer of silicon that is on top of an insulating layer.
More details on OS/400 are provided in “Operating System/400, 5769-SS1” on page 451. Hierarchy of Microprocessors The following figure shows that the AS/400e system has a range of other processors, along with its main system processor, dedicated to a particular input/output (I/O) device type. A single large AS/400 configuration can have well over 200 processors.

The microprocessors that look after a particular I/O device are accommodated on I/O cards that fit into slots on the AS/400e buses. One of these cards may be the Integrated Netfinity Server. This is a PC on a card, which enables the AS/400e system to run a Windows NT server, for example.
Driven by the demand for the highest possible availability, PCI hot-plugging is now available on the new AS/400e servers with V4R5 on all 8xx and some of the 270 models. A brief description of the way it is implemented on the AS/400e follows.
The AS/400e logical partition implementation introduces both the flexibility to allocate interactive performance and high-speed internal communications between partitions. The AS/400e system implementation is an adaptation of the S/390 logical partitions concept with flexible and granular allocation of system resources.

(by having something written into the middle of it). Certain instructions apply to all objects, while other instructions work only on specific types of objects. It is not possible to misuse an object, unlike the situation that exists on non-AS/400e systems without an object-based approach.
Page 54
AS/400 System Architecture: Underlying Strength of the AS/400e The future-oriented architecture of the AS/400e system has enabled us to take rapidly-changing hardware and software technologies in our stride. This same, flexible architecture will continue to deploy the very latest technologies, with the minimum disruption to work.
AS/400 range in 1998. It had a RPR rating of 1.0. The AS/400e product line continues to grow in power with the PowerPC RISC processors and 24- and 12-way processors. With the increased processing power and more applications using vital technologies, such as Web serving, client/server, and multimedia, the point was reached when RAMP-C was no longer a valid means for measuring relative performance.
The disk configuration can be a major contributor of performance bottlenecks. It is important to size an AS/400e system with an appropriate number of disk arms, to provide for the best obtainable disk subsystem performance, and, therefore, improve overall system performance.
Entry performance is three times the Model 170. Top model performance is nearly doubled. The introduction of the 8xx servers is a significant step in the evolution of the AS/400e server product line. Top model performance is increased three and a half times for base and interactive performance.
AS/400e capabilities to support Lotus Domino are firmly established since the announcement of Lotus Domino for AS/400 in January 1998. In mid-1999, IBM and Lotus delivered a first in the industry—the AS/400e Dedicated Server for Domino. The AS/400e system’s reliability, robust subsystem architecture, and ease of operations provide a sound base to develop and deploy Domino solutions.
Page 61
Domino environments, there is a gain in enterprise-class scalability and capacity. AS/400e customers extend their traditional applications and data by adding Lotus Domino solutions to their existing AS/400e servers, as part of upgrades, and as stand-alone servers for e-mail, groupware applications, and Web sites. Domino customers use Domino partitioning on AS/400e servers to consolidate several Domino workloads onto one server with a simple, single footprint to deliver e-mail and applications.
#2424 provides. Customers who require scalability or capacity beyond what the AS/400e Dedicated Server for Domino 820 provides should plan to pursue AS/400e server Models 830 or 840, or to deploy multiple servers for their Domino applications. • Upgradability: Processor feature conversions are supported within each AS/400e Dedicated Server for Domino model.
Page 63
– Standalone Java, RPG, COBOL, or C applications are non-Domino workloads. – Applications that can work alongside Domino on the same AS/400e. An example is a Domino server that uses the *MSF SMTF Services option along with the QMSF task to process Internet mail through the OS/400 SMTP server.

Domino resources to non-Domino (CPW) work, and the non-Domino performance degradation can be dramatic. For some Domino solution scenarios, you need to work closely with an IBM, Lotus, or IBM Business Partner representative to determine whether AS/400e server 270 with standard processor features, 8xx servers, or the new AS/400e Dedicated Server for Domino is most appropriate for the proposed environment.
Page 66
CPU capability on the AS/400e Dedicated Server for Domino, no additional processing power will be available for non-Domino workloads. If the proposed Domino application employs any significant DB2 UDB or program integration, a standard AS/400e server model is a better choice.
Sun, the AS/400e system takes advantage of the new functions and features of this environment. There is an exciting future for Java on the AS/400e. The AS/400 Developer Kit for Java supports Sun's Java 2. With the concurrent Java support shipped as part of the V4R4 AS/400 Developer Kit for Java, you can install Java 2 on systems where JDK 1.1.6 or 1.17 are already...

• Single-system availability management: The AS/400e servers have high-availability facilities that are fast, automated, and easy to use. AS/400e customers are more likely to use the best availability practices, which helps them reduce the length of both planned and unplanned outages.
V4R4, the AS/400e support has been extended to support new forms of information previously stored on the AS/400e but not managed by DB2 for AS/400. With this release, DB2 Universal Database (UDB) for AS/400 now supports the storing, managing, and indexing of all forms of information including binary objects (such as spreadsheets, word processing documents, and multimedia objects) within the database.
• Large objects (LOBs) support allows DB2 UDB to store and manipulate data fields much larger than the current limits. An AS/400e record with LOB fields can hold up to 15 MB of data. With the new LOB support, DB2 UDB can be used as a platform for building applications that hold new non-traditional types of data, such as image and audio as well as very large text blocks.

There are a series of “hard” and “soft” rules that define the combinations of IOPs and IOAs supported in an AS/400e system. What is meant by hard and soft rules? • Hard rules are rules and restrictions automatically enforced by the AS/400 Marketing Configurators.
It should also be noted that this section does not cover the migration towers that can be attached to the Model 8xx server. For configuration rules related to migrated hardware, see the description of the affected features to be migrated the AS/400e System Builder , SG24-2155.
PCI Card Placement Rules There are several new concepts in the AS/400 system, such as Multi-Adapter Bridges, Multi-Adapter Bridge Boundaries, and PCI Buses, that are defined later in this section. Knowledge of these new concepts is required to understand the card rules defined later in this chapter.
