Withdrawn Products - IBM AS/400e User Handbook Manual

Introduction
models. "Hot plugging" is made possible by power control to individual card slots. PCI IOPs or
IOAs can be added, removed, and replaced while the system remains active. In most cases,
IOA configurations can be changed while other IOAs on the same IOP remain operational.
Flexible placement rules for IOPs and IOAs allow you to customize your system for
performance, capacity, availability, or logical partitions.
Serviceability enhancements include extended problem determination for TCP/IP and a GUI
interface in Operations Navigator for DASD management functions. The GUI interface offers
both observation and maintenance of the disk and ASP configuration. Wizards are available
to add and replace units, and view up to 2000 disk units in a customizable, scalable manner.
Management Central offers an extensive suite of performance metrics to pinpoint details of
system performance. Publications are available in PDF format for improved printing.
This Handbook provides an overview of both the hardware and software for the newly
refreshed AS/400e servers. This includes the 9406 250, 270, 820, 830, 840, SB2, and SB3
servers. OS/400 V4R5 operating software support these models.
The AS/400e System Handbook is designed to answer first-level questions that IBM
employees, Business Partners, and customers ask about the AS/400 system. For a greater
depth of information than what is provided here, consult the companion manual AS/400e
System Builde r, SG24-2155, and your IBM sales representative. Also refer to the IBM online
publications and systems, such as ViewBlue and PartnerInfo (or their equivalent outside of
the United States).
