Summary of All Earlier AS/400 Models

Table Notes for All Summary Tables

1. CPW is the Commercial Processing Workload that is now being used to measure the
performance of all AS/400 processors. 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
being run determine what performance is achievable. For more details, please see
"Commercial Processing Workload" on page 27.
2. 9404 Model B10 with 16M Main Storage and 945M of Disk assigned value of 1.0. All data
for 70% system utilization and maximum configurations. IBM RAMP-C workload.
Customer results may vary.
3. There are particular limitations within SSP which means that quoted minimums and
maximums are often with OS/400 installed.
4. RSP CPW 5.5/17.1 refers to interactive and client/server environments respectively on the
9401 Server 10S. RSP RAMP-C of 1.9/5.9 also refers to these two environments in the
same order.
5. Three LANs are allowed when running IBM Firewall for AS/400 (5769-FW1).
6. One tape is required.
7. Does not include Operations Console.
8. These cards may have one or two LAN ports. The #6617 SPD Integrated PC Server can
have up to three ports.
9. V4R2 or later is a prerequisite for Optical Library support.
10. Either #9329 (PCI cards) or #9331 (SPD cards) must be chosen on a #5064/#9364.
Therefore, columns two and three below this point are mutually exclusive.
11. The lower figure is for #2175, #2179, and #2180 processors. The higher number is for the
#2181 and #2182 processors.
12. External DASD can be attached through an SPD disk controller in this unit.
13. Maximums are:
12 of #6500
20 of #6501
9 of #6502, #6512, #6530, #6532, #6533
These maximums may be limited when used in combination with other disk controllers.
14. With V4R1, a maximum of two workstation controllers is supported.
15. The combined maximum of local and remote displays attached to ASCII and Twinax is
seven with V4R1 and 28 with V4R2 and V4R3.
