The IBM 9402 AS/400 Advanced 36 with PowerPC
technology offers three feature processors. Built on existing System/36
software functions and interfaces and a member of the AS/400 Advanced Series,
AS/400 Advanced 36 shares 9402 packaging and incorporates 64-bit PowerPC AS
microprocessors. It will run the SSP alone, or SSP and OS/400 concurrently. If
OS/400 is installed, up to three copies of the SSP can be run simultaneously.
Model Abstract 9402-436: The IBM 9402 AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 436
business computing system increases capacity and performance for IBM System/36
customers. The AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 436 with PowerPC technology offers
three new feature processors. AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 436 with SSP Release 7.5
and the addition of OS/400 Version 3 Release 6 features: capacity beyond that
supported by SSP; integrated fax; Internet access; new and updated
applications; programming productivity; increased LAN and communications
support, including wireless LAN; Electronic Customer Support (ECS); and
improved PC support via Client Access for OS/400.
· Offers expanded capacities and features with OS/400
IBM System/36 applications using
non-privileged, documented interfaces are object code compatible on AS/400
Advanced 36. You won't have to recompile or change your IBM System/36
applications. Interactive response time of IBM AS/400 Advanced Model 436 is
from two to six times faster than IBM System/36. Batch performance is from four
(on an entry #2102) to thirty times faster (on a maximum configured #2106).
Actual performance improvement depends on workload characteristics.
Three pre-defined, specially-priced packages
make it easier for you to order. The smallest package contains the system
processor, 32MB of main storage, system software (System Support Program, LAN
Communications, RPG II, Utilities, Query/36, PC Support/36*), a CD-ROM for IBM
distributed software, Multifunction Processor, a 1.03GB disk storage unit, a
2.5GB 1/4-inch tape drive, and a workstation controller to support up to 40
twinaxial workstations. Each can be ordered with additional optional features.
In addition, convenience kits are available to
upgrade AS/400 Model 236 systems to the new model.
* PC Support/36 is not part of the DBCS
BasePac.
Operating System Flexibility
AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 236 with 64-bit
processor, announced in 1994 as a faster object-code compatible System/36,
supports existing System/36 software functions and interfaces. In 1996, with
the AS/400 Advance 36 with PowerPC technology, you can continue to operate as
an SSP-only system, or you can add OS/400 and also run AS/400 applications.
To run both AS/400 and System/36 applications
concurrently means that you can add new AS/400 applications without migrating
or changing your current System/36 applications. You can move to AS/400
applications at your own pace.
AS/400 Advanced 36 with SSP Release 7.5 and
OS/400 Version 3 Release 6 allow you to use functions such as integrated fax,
increased LAN and communications support, wireless LAN, ECS, improved PC support
and Internet access; or use additional capacity beyond that supported by SSP.
Model Description 9402-436: AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 436 supports three
feature processors.
IBMs and your Competitive Advantage
Migration to an AS/400 Advanced 36 from a
System/36 requires the utilization of provided transition aid software. You can
continue to run your current System/36 applications, unchanged, without
recompiling. In addition, all the normal SSP operating system and utility
functions are supported, a feature which competition cannot offer.
AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 236 installations can
upgrade to AS/400 Advanced 36 Model 436. For additional information refer to
"AS/400 Advanced 36 Planning and Reference Handbook" (SA21-9656).
RPO Actions for package MESes
Because of the special validation rules on the
initial order packages, there are a number of MES actions that cannot be
performed in AAS without first unpacking the installed system. On the first MES
to selective package systems, a list of RPO (Record Purposes Only) actions must
be created to unpack the package. The RPO list is given below by package.

Notes:
Capacities shown are for models shipped from
the plant and include any prerequisite expansion features. Some combinations of
devices may be subject to configuration restrictions.
The relative performance rating for SSP and
OS/400 were achieved when running each operating system dedicated on the
system, and may not be realized in all environments. The performance when
running SSP and OS/400 concurrently, will vary depending on the workload.
* The relative system performance is estimated
based on running the S/36 version of RAMP-C in SSP with a maximum configured
Model 236 equaling 1.0. The SSP relative performance rating can not be compared
to the OS/400 relative performance ratings.
** The relative system performance ratios are
estimated based on AS/400 environment, native RAMP-C workload, with a 9404 B10
with 16MB of main storage and 945MB of DASD equaling 1.0. The ratios shown were
estimated at maximum configurations running at 70% utilization. Relative system
performance ratios may not be realized in all environments.
*** SSP Supports 4GB but additional DASD may
be ordered (up to the indicated limit) for storing Licensed Internal Code,
mirroring or Raid 5, and future growth

AS/400 Advanced 36 System Packages
AS/400 Advanced 36 with PowerPC technology is
offered in three pre- defined packages:
Each package is a complete system with basic
software including System Support Program (now including LAN communications),
RPG II, Utilities, Query/36 and PC Support/36 (PC Support/36 is not included in
DBCS packages). This simplifies ordering and installation since many customers
require these licensed programs.
The Entry Package A has 32MB of memory, a
1.03GB disk, 2.5GB 1/4-inch cartridge tape drive, CD-ROM, an EIA 232/V.24
communications line with an enhanced 6-meter/20 foot cable, a panel keylock,
and the ability to attach up to 40 twinaxial workstations.
The Growth Package B has 1.96GB disk and
builds on the Entry Package A by adding DASD power, a second EIA 232/V.24
communications line and cable and two IOP attachment slots.
The Large Package C has 3.93GB disk, 64MB of
memory, support for an additional 40 twinaxial workstations (supporting up to
80 workstations), six IOP attachment slots and a Six-Line Communications
Controller.
These packages are designed for the customer
who is planning to run only the SSP operating system. Customers choosing to run
both SSP and OS/400 operating systems must plan for additional DASD and memory
to fill their total requirement. A Minimum of 64MB of memory and 3GB of DASD is
required to support SSP and OS/400 simultaneously.
With the addition of OS/400 and a modem,
Advanced 36 customers will be able use the Electronic Customer Support (ECS)
utilizing an EIA 232/V.24 communications line which is shipped with each
package.
Optional items may be added to any package on
the initial order or after installation.
AS/400 Advanced 36 users can reduce the impact
of utility power interruptions and the associated system recovery activities by
purchasing an optional Uninterruptible Power System. It is highly recommended
since it contributes to improved system availability. Refer to the "New
Device" section for more information.
Convenient upgrade kits are available for the
existing AS/400 Model 236. See the processor upgrade section for more
information.

The 3490 Magnetic Tape Subsystems can be
shared between AS/400 systems, System/370 and System/390 as follows:
3490E Magnetic Tape Subsystem Models E01
and E11
The 3490E E01 and E11 models are media
compatible with the current 3490E models, but offer a lower cost, smaller size,
increased performance, and increased Cartridge Stack Loader (CSL) capacity. The
new models include rack-mount and table-top versions, both with a seven
cartridge CSL. Each model has an integrated control unit and one tape drive.
Data compaction with Improved Data Recording Capability (IDRC) provides up to
three times compaction. With IDRC, data transfer rates up to 4.9MB/sec are

models are supported using #6501.
The 3490E EXX models cannot be shared between
two systems, and distance from the system is limited to 82-ft (25-meters). The
3490E CXX models should be selected when system sharing is required, and/or
distance up to 400-ft (121-meters) is required. Also, the 3490E EXX models
cannot be migrated to the 3494 Tape Library Dataserver Model L10, while the
3490E CXX models can.
Maximum: See the AS/400 model summary table.
3494 Tape Library Dataserver Model L10
The 3494 Tape Library Dataserver Model L10 is
stand-alone, automated tape-storage subsystem designed to provide unattended
tape operation.
Using Backup Recovery and Media Services/400
(5763-BR1) the 3494 provides automated system backup and recovery. Use of this
product with the tape library is optional, but recommended.
3494 Highlights:
The 3490E-CXA tape drives within the library
attach to the AS/400 in the same way as the 3490E-CXX drives. On the AS/400,
one EIA 232/V.24 Line Adapter is required for each 3494 Tape Library.
Maximums: See the AS/400 model summary table.
3494 Tape Library Dataserver Model L12
The 3494 Tape Library Dataserver Model L12
offers the high reliability and high availability features of the Model L10
with the added support of the 3590 High Performance Tape Subsystem Model B1A.
This allows customers to automate tape data handling with the latest
technology. The ability to support the 3490E and 3590 technology in the same
library offers customers a fast and convenient way to manage these tape media.
3590 High Performance Tape Subsystem
The 3590 is a new automated tape subsystem for
the AS/400, reaching higher levels of reliability, capacity and performance.
The drive rate of 9 MB per second is three times faster than previous IBM 3480,
3490 or 3490E tape drives, allowing tape applications to read and write data
more quickly. Using the built-in data compression capability, the 3590 has a
potential maximum throughput of 20 MB per second. Actual throughput is a
function of end-to-end system capabilities including processor, DASD, bus, IOP,
OS/400 blocking and data compaction.
The 3590 uses new read/write and media
technology for vastly increased capacity and reliability. The new cartridge has
an uncompacted data capacity of 10GB, or typically over 30GB assuming a 3:1
compaction ratio. The capacity of an individual drive has further been
increased by the addition of the Automatic Cartridge Facility (ACF), which
allows an operator to mount ten cartridges at a time via a magazine. Thus an
individual drive can provide storage for 100 to 300GB of data. Exploitation of
the capacity is a function of data characteristics.
The 3590 is available in two models. The Model
B11 is rack mounted and includes a 10-cartridge Automatic Cartridge Facility
(ACF) that can be used in random access mode as a mini-library. The Model B1A
does not include the ACF and is designed to fit into the 3494 Tape Library
Dataserver, increasing total library capacity to over 90 terabytes.
The 3590 attaches to all DXX and later models
of the AS/400, except the X02 and P03 models, using AS/400 Feature #6501
(Magnetic Media Subsystem Controller). Each feature #6501 can support up to two
tape drives. The 3490 has two SCSI ports and can be shared between two systems.
Backup Recovery and Media Services/400
(BRMS/400) is recommended to support automation in tape handling, media
management, fast search, and automatic migration of data between tape and DASD
based on user defined policies. For developing unique applications, OS/400
provides a command interface.
7208 8mm External Tape Drives
The 7208 is an 8mm helical scan, medium
performance, high capacity, streaming tape drive with models supporting media
capacity of up to 7.0GB per cartridge. The Model 2 (Withdrawn from marketing)
provides 2.3GB capacity. When hardware data compression (HDC) on the IOP is
enabled, it typically provides 1.5 times improvement in capacity and transfer
rate. The 7208 Model 12 provides 5GB capacity and the Model 222 provides 7GB.
Both Models 12 and 222 support an implementation of IBM's Improved Data
Recording Capability (IDRC) that typically provides a two times improvement in
capacity and transfer rate.
All 7208 models are stand-alone, table-top
devices, and can be used for save/restore, alternate IPL, program interchange
and 8mm cartridge tape interchange with other AS/400 systems. Kits for
rack-mounting are available via RPQ 841997 for the Model 2 and RPQ 841998 for
the Model 12. The 7208 attaches to the AS/400 via Removable Media Device
Attachment Feature (#2621). This feature supports up to two tape devices.
Full interchange of data is supported between
Models 002, 012 and 222, the 9427 and the AS/400 Advanced Series internal 7GB
8mm tape units, using the proper tape density and 7208-002/012/222 tape media.
All models use the same media and cleaning cartridges. The Models 002, 012 and
222 do NOT support data interchange with the 7208 Model 1 or Model 11 attached
to RS/6000 systems.
The Model 2 has an instantaneous data transfer
rate of 245KBps second. When HDC is enabled the unattended save rate would
typically be 1GB/Hr with 3.5GB of data stored per cartridge. The Model 12 has
an instantaneous data transfer rate of 500KBps. When IDRC is enabled the
unattended save rate would typically be 3GB/Hr with 10GB of data stored per
cartridge. The Model 222 has a sustained data transfer rate of 500KBps. Using
IDRC, maximum effective data transfer rate is up to 1 MBps, and capacity is up
to 14GB of data stored per cartridge, depending on the type of data.
Maximums: See the AS/400 model summary table.
9348 Magnetic Tape Units
The 9348 is a streaming 1/2-inch reel-to-reel
tape drive that provides save/restore, alternate IPL, program distribution and
1/2-inch reel tape interchange. The 9348 offers dual density of 1,600/6250bpi
with an instantaneous data rate of 200KB per second at 1,600bpi and 781KB per
second at 6,250bpi. The 9348 tape drive supports 1.5 mil thick tape media up to
a maximum of 2400 feet.

libraries supported on all AS/400 D, E, and F models (except Models D02 and
E02), and on all AS/400 Advanced Series models. The 9427-210 is a stand-alone
unit, and the 9427-211 is rack-mount unit that requires 14 EIA units and 1/2 of
the horizontal rack space. Two Model 211 units can be placed in a rack,
side-by-side. Each 9427 supports one or two 7GB 8mm tape drives. Up to twenty
tape cartridges are supported. Optional features to support dual host channels,
tape mirroring for fault tolerance, off-line host independent functions (tape
copy and compare), and a label printer port will be available. Device
performance is 1.5 MB/sec. The 9427 is available in black or white.
Tape cartridge capacity is 7GB and sustained
data transfer rate is 500KBps. Using Improved Data Recording Capability (IDRC),
maximum tape cartridge capacity is up to 14GB, and effective data transfer rate
is up to 1 MBps, depending on the type of data. Total 9427 capacity is up to
280GB.
The 9427 can be used for save/restore, program
distribution, migration, data interchange, automatic migration of data between

supported with the 7208-002, 7208-012 and 7208-232 tape drives, and the AS/400
Advanced Series internal 7GB 8mm tape units, using the proper tape density and
7208-002/012 tape media.
Media is handled in two, ten-cartridge
magazines, which can easily be added to or removed from the tape library. Each
library has a bar-code reader used to inventory the library contents, and a
display on the front panel that is used for status and error codes. Keys
located next to the display are used for selecting operating options. The 9427
has a front door of clear plastic so that the robotics, drives and cartridge
tapes can be seen while in operation. The door has a key-lock for security.
Neither the 7GB 8mm Cartridge Tape unit
located in the AS/400 system unit, nor the 7208-222, can be migrated to a 9427.
The 9427 is attached to the AS/400 via the
Removable Media Device Attachment (#2621), with a maximum of one 9427 per
#2621. The Removable Media Device Attachment (#2621) has two SCSI ports. The
9427 can attach to the #2621 using one or two ports (two ports are required for
maximum performance of the 9427). If the 9427 is attached using only one SCSI
port, then the other SCSI port can be used to attach other devices. A feature
is available to support attachment to two systems with random access to
cartridges, tape mirroring, offline tape copy and compare, and a label printer
port.
Backup,Recovery and Media Services/400
(5763-BR1) is recommended to support automation in tape handling, media
management, and automatic migration of data between tape and DASD based on user
defined policies. For those developing unique library applications, OS/400
provides a library command interface.

(#0203) Side by Side Install: This no-charge specify code is used to alert IBM
service representatives of the intention to install a new system concurrently
with an existing system, and over time, move applications to the new system.
This method may be used when adding a system to an existing complex or network,
or when a replaced system is being moved to another location. AS/400 Roadmap
for Changing to PowerPC Technology (SA41-4150) describes this option in detail.
IBM services are also available for a charge.
One of the following specify codes must be
entered on the system order to describe which tape drive will be used for the
alternate IPL device. The choice should match the type of media that was
selected for software distribution.
· #0040 Mirrored System - Disk Unit Level Protection
When added to an initial order, this specify code will cause the order to fail if sufficient DASD is not ordered to support device level mirrored protection. On upgrade orders, a warning message will be generated during installation of the upgrade if sufficient DASD is not available to support device level protection across the system.
When added to an initial order, this specify code will cause the order to fail if non-RAID DASD is ordered. On upgrade orders, a warning message will be generated during installation if a RAID capable DASD without RAID enabled is encountered.
One of the following Tape/Optical migration

meet country regulations. Spread spectrum provides excellent resistance to
interference from other radio frequency (RF) sources.
Availability of this feature in any particular
country is dependent on current country radio frequency regulations and
certification for use by the country.
The AS/400 Wireless LAN Adapter comes with an
antenna and a cable for connecting the antenna to the adapter. The area of
coverage may be extended beyond the coverage provided by the antenna attached
to the adapter by adding AS/400 Wireless LAN Access Points to the network via
an unshielded twisted-pair wired backbone. In addition, access points may be
connected without wires, acting as wireless repeaters. Each adapter or access
point generates one cell of coverage area. Networks are designed to create
overlapping cells to ensure consistent coverage of the area desired. The AS/400
Wireless LAN Adapter allows transparent seamless movement from cell to cell
while maintaining a continuous host session. A site survey by trained
professionals is recommended to assist in network design.
The AS/400 Wireless LAN Adapter operates with
existing application software interfaces. Existing 5250 and LAN-oriented
applications can use the AS/400 Wireless LAN Adapter without change.
The AS/400 Wireless LAN Adapter supports the
2480 family of AS/400 wireless LAN and data collection devices. This family of
devices provides comprehensive connectivity solutions for attaching personal
computers and data collection devices to the AS/400 in a mobile, wireless
