UPS which provides the ability to tolerate a large range of power quality
problems. Significant reduction in power requirements on the 9404 makes a UPS
more cost effective.
Reliability, Availability and
Serviceability (RAS)
Problem determination is accomplished through
devices and features that, wherever possible, detect, isolate and report their
own errors. For cases when automatic recovery or isolation is not possible, a
process known as Problem Analysis and Resolution (PAR) is provided which
includes extended diagnostics for isolating the failure to a part or list of
parts. The failing unit may then be ordered and replaced on-site. The Analyze
Problem command will allow the customer to define perceived problems not
reported by the system.
When the failure has been analyzed and
isolated to a single part or parts, the communications facilities of the
electronic customer support can enable a direct link to IBM Service. This
results in a service representative being dispatched with the appropriate part
to resolve the problem.

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 10 GB, or typically over 30 GB 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 300 GB of data. The 3590 cannot read or
write 3490E tape cartridges.
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 AS/400 DXX and later
models, 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 8-mm External Tape Drives
The 7208 is an 8-mm 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.
Both 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 1MBps, and capacity is up
to 14GB of data stored per cartridge, depending on the type of data.
Attaches to all AS/400 Advanced Series models.
Model 222 requires the support of OS/400 Version 3 Release 1. Maximums: See
System Unit Summary table.
9348 Model 2 Magnetic Tape Unit
The 9348 Model 2 is a free standing table top,

9427 8mm Tape Cartridge Library Models 210
and 211
The 9427 Models 210 and 211 are automated tape
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 a rack-mounted 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 1.5MB/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 1MBps, depending on the type of data. Total 9427 capacity is up to
280GB.
The 9427 can be used for save/restore, alternate
IPL (except on Models D04, D06, D10 and D20), program distribution, migration,
data interchange, automatic migration of data between DASD and tape, and mass
storage for data archive. Full interchange of data is 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.
Support for the 9427 is provided by OS/400
Version 3 Release 1. 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.
Remote Workstation Controllers
5251 Model 12
The 5251 Model 12 may be used to attach remote
workstations. It is a workstation controller and communications unit for remote
attachment of multiple display stations and printers. PC Support access by
Personal Computers and Personal System/2s attached to the 5251 Model 12 will
not be supported.
Note: Remote workstation controllers attach to the AS/400 via the
communications subsystem features. The 5294 or the 5394 running in 5294
emulation mode, will not give IBM Personal Computers or Personal System/2s
access to IBM PC Support/400.
5294
The 5294 Remote Control Unit can be used to
attach up to eight 5250 type displays, printers, IBM Personal Computers and
Personal System/2s, and Personal System/55 (AP only), to an AS/400 via a
communications link. The function provided will be equivalent to that available
on the System/36 and System/38 with the exception that PC Support access by
Personal Computers and Personal System/2s attached to the 5294 will not be
supported.
5394
The 5394 Remote Control Unit attaches up to
sixteen 5250 type displays, printers, IBM Personal Computers and Personal
System/2s, and Personal System/55 (AP only) to an AS/400 via a communications
link. The function provided will be similar to that provided to the local
workstations via the #6140 or #6040 local twinaxial workstation controllers.
5494 Remote Control Unit
The 5494 Remote Control Unit manages the
operation of workstations and workstation communications to the AS/400. The IBM
5494-EXT replaces the IBM 5494-001 and the IBM 5494-002. The 5494 now has only
one model, to which features are added customizing the 5494 for operational
needs.
The 5494-EXT supports the attachment of up to
28 twinaxial devices. With the 5494 Twinaxial Expansion Kit installed, up to 56
twinaxial devices can communicate to the AS/400 through a Type 2.1 connection.
By installing the 5494 Token-Ring Adapter, the
5494-EXT has all the functional capabilities of the withdrawn 5494-002. It can
communicate with an AS/400 system over a Token-Ring network while supporting up
to 28 twinaxial devices, or can support Token-Ring attached devices while
communicating with an AS/400 over an SDLC, X.21, or X.25 connection. In this
configuration, the 5494 supports up to 80 devices of which up to 28 could be
twinaxial attached and the rest Token-Ring attached.
The Ethernet Adapter supports IEEE 802.2
logical link control and IEEE 802.3 or DIX Version 2.0 frame format using a
10BASE2 (BNC), a 10BASE5 (15-pin D-SUB), or a 10BASE-T (RJ-45) connector. The
5494 Ethernet AUI Cable allows the attachment to an Ethernet Network using
thick coaxial (10BASE5) cabling. Ethernet support allows the 5494 to be used as
a gateway to an Ethernet LAN or attach to an AS/400 System via an Ethernet
Network.
The 5494 Utility Program allows the selection
of Concurrent Diagnostics, configuration information, or to reset and restart
the 5494 Remote Control Unit from a remote Programmable Workstation (PWS). The
PWS no longer needs to be directly attached to a 5494 to provide access to
remote 5494's from a central site.
The IBM 5494 Release 3.0 microcode supports
all the functions of the IBM 5494 Release 2.0 microcode and the following

The IBM 6250 X Terminal offers
high-performance, local-area network (LAN)-attached X terminals that provide a
low-cost, desk-top platform for connectivity to the AS/400 and UNIX based host
platforms (such as the RS/6000*. The 6250 X Terminal supports multiple 5250
emulation sessions to one or more AS/400s using an X Windows interface. The X
terminal can also access UNIX host applications using either the memory
efficient 6250 Window manger or the industry standard Motif** Window Manager.
Either window manager provides a superb graphics platform for applications in
the X Window environment.
The 6250 X Terminal Family includes four
models...color and monochrome Ethernet models and color and monochrome
Token-Ring models. They come with a base of 4MB of memory, expandable to 20MB
or 16MB, depending on the model. The displays both have a resolution of
1024X768 and the color models support 256 colors.
The 6250 X Terminal requires one AS/400 on the
LAN to have the IBM 6250 X Terminal Program for OS/400 (PRPQ 5799-QGP)
installed. The X terminal down-loads the X window environment from the AS/400
and then can communicate with other hosts on the LAN.
The X terminals include an integrated, swivel
display, keyboard, three button mouse and license to use the 6250 program. The
X terminals have an easy to use setup menu for initial configuration and
standard LAN connectors for the most popular Ethernet or Token-Ring

classrooms, and conference and meeting rooms. Models operating with an
Expansion Unit (#7100, #7110 or #7120), 3995 Compact Optical Library Dataserver
or a 9348 Model 2 Magnetic Tape Unit are designed to operate in a "general
business" environment such as administrative, bookkeeping, word
processing, and terminal printer areas.
Voltage
The 9404 can operate at either low voltage
(100-127 VAC) or high voltage (200-240 VAC), 50/60 Hz. The default will be low
voltage (100-127 VAC). A specify code (#2961) is required if the customer wants
to use high voltage in order to receive the applicable power cord/plug.
·
ASCII devices attached to
a AS/400 may not provide the same response time as 5250 devices. ASCII displays
do not have identical keyboards, attributes, character sets, and functions to
5250 displays. Configuration of ASCII devices is more extensive than 5250
devices.
AS/400 PC Support
is not supported for IBM Personal Computers or IBM Personal System/2s attached
to 5251-12, 5294, 3174/3274, 5208, 5209, or ROLMbridge.
The minimum system configuration consists of a
9404 System Unit, a system console (display) and 5853 (or equivalent) modem.
All models of the AS/400 require the appropriate model-unique version of AS/400
Licensed Internal Code. This model-unique licensed internal code is delivered
on magnetic media with the system unit and with model upgrades. The media used
is that required for the device specified as the system alternate IPL device.
The licensed internal code may also be preloaded on disk storage.
The program size of the IBM AS/400 Licensed
Internal Code for the 9404 is 76.5MB.
The system console may be any supported
display or IBM Personal Computer emulating a supported display or Personal
System/55 (AP only) attached to the Twinaxial Workstation Controller or 5209
Link Protocol Converter or a 3151, 316X, or equivalent attached to the ASCII
Workstation Controller or the 5208 Link Protocol Converter. An Apple Macintosh
computer workstation may be utilized as the system console when attached to a
9404 MFIOP via the Workstation Adapter (for LocalTalk) feature. The console
(display) should be located within 6 meters (20 ft.) of the operator's panel
and the operator's panel must be viewable from this display. Although required,
the system console is not a component of the base system unit.
Although a printer is not required for
service, IBM's ability to diagnose the system and perform upgrades is greatly
enhanced when a printer is available.
An IBM 5858, 7855, or equivalent modem is
required for electronic customer support but is not a component of the base
system unit.
The 9404 B Model System Units are supported by
all releases of the AS/400 Operating System/400 (OS/400).
It is recommended that all B, C, and D model
systems be at Version 2 Release 1 or subsequent release and that the current
level cumulative PTF package be applied in conjunction with the installed
release. When performing a system upgrade, it is suggested that the IBM service
support system and the Preventative Service Package are checked to ensure that
required PTFs are available for installation.
OS/400 Version 2 Release 2 and later includes
programming that provides for the detection of processor model changes on the
9404, via the use of a 16-character system password. The purpose of the system
password is to identify all model changes to help maintain the quality and
integrity of the system and to insure the protection of IBM's intellectual
property, including IBM Licensed Internal Code and Licensed Programs. After the
installation of OS/400 Version 2 Release 2 or later, the system will require a
single entry of the system password when a system model change is performed.
There are also rare service conditions that
may require re-entry of the system password. If the password must be entered and
it is not known, the customer or service representative can select to operate
in system password bypass mode. This will allow time to contact the marketing
representative, who must obtain the correct system password by placing an RPQ
order. If the correct system password is not available and the bypass period
expires, the system will not complete the next IPL until the correct system
password is provided. In an emergency (system down situation), IBM service can
obtain the system password by contacting the ABS Product Support Center.
For more details on the system password, see
the "System Operator's Guide," SC41-8082.
The multilingual features provide only those
parts of the licensed program that are translated. The non-translated materials
(programs, for example) are provided only with the basic machine-readable
materials which must also be installed in order to enable the multilingual
support to work.
9404 installation, model conversion, and
optional feature installation will be done by an IBM service representative.
The modem used for electronic customer support
must conform to the following technical specifications:
The following electronic customer support
connectivity is supported using the IBM 7855 9600bps modem in locations where
the IBM Information Network (IIN) and the following facilities are available:
The electronic customer support modem
presently shipped with the system in European, Mid-East, and African countries
is a 5858, CDS or a PTT mandated modem. Also, the use of the 7855 in these
countries is dependent upon PTT homologation.

The following optional features may be added
to the 9404 models. All are available when initially ordered and as field
upgrades except as noted. The IBM service representative is responsible for
installing all upgrades and optional features. Four card slots are available in
the 9404 System Unit. Five additional card slots are available in either the
#7100, #7110 or #7120 Expansion Units.
When ordering features, it is necessary to
consider the number of card slots required by the feature and the number of
card slots available in each model. The main storage slots are fixed. Any of
the four card slots can be used for I/O expansion. The number of I/O cards that
can be attached to each model is listed in the description of the feature.
When an on-line configurator is available for
ordering a 9404 System Unit, the configurator will automatically handle the
card slot count considerations for initial orders. If the order is to be placed
without the use of this type of configurator, then the guidance provided in the
feature descriptions should be used to configure a system.
(#2620) Cryptographic Processor: (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of December
31, 1999)
The Cryptographic Processor feature performs
cryptographic functions based on a hardware implementation of the ANSI standard
Data Encryption Standard (DES) and the RSA Public Key Algorithm (PKA). (The RSA
algorithm was defined by R. Rivest, A. Shamir and L. Adleman.) Cryptographic
applications are a cost-effective way of providing confidentiality and/or authentication
and integrity assurance for many forms of valuable data. This protection is
especially important in networks, which may be vulnerable to unauthorized
access to data and resources. Application areas include banking, Electronic
Data Interchange (EDI) and protection of proprietary information such as
engineering drawings, customer lists, product plans, and personnel records.
Functions provided include encryption and
decryption of data, authentication and verification of messages and data,
creation and management of financial personal identification numbers (PINs) and
management of cryptographic keys. The Public Key Algorithm supports the
generation and verification of digital signatures for applications requiring
positive electronic authentication of the identity of the sender of a message.
The PKA function also provides efficient distribution of encrypted DES
cryptographic keys.
Control of the tamper-resistant cryptographic
hardware is provided through the supporting PRPQs listed below and optionally,
through IBM Personal Security Cards using the IBM 4754-001 Security Interface
Unit. The cryptographic functions provided conform to the IBM Common
Cryptographic Architecture, are compatible with the IBM Transaction Security
System, and interoperate with most DES based cryptographic products including
IBM cryptographic products on MVS, RS/6000 (WT only), OS/2 and DOS and the IBM
Cryptographic Support/400 licensed program (5728-CR1, 5738-CR1, 5763-CR1).
Through its extensive use of industry standards, the cryptographic processor
also interoperates with most other DES based cryptographic products.
This feature consists of an I/O processor card
with a cable to attach a 4754-001, and a cable wrap connector (1 per system).
The 4754-001, if desired, must be ordered separately.
Export authorization from the U.S. Government
is required to ship this feature to countries outside the U.S. and Canada.
Other countries may also regulate the export of this feature. Export licenses
for feature #2620 will generally be approved for shipment to financial
institutions and subsidiaries of U.S. companies. Export of feature #2628 may be
approved in other cases. Check with your local export regulation coordinator
for specific country requirements.
This feature requires the support of OS/400
Version 2 Release 3 and PRPQ 5799-FBR or OS/400 Version 3 Release 1.0 or later,
and PRPQ 5799-XBY. PKA functions require OS/400 Version 3 Release 1.0 or later,
and PRPQ 5799-XBY. Feature #2620 is not supported by IBM Cryptographic
Support/400.
Publications: For additional information refer
to the following:
Card slots required: One. Maximums: One on all
D and later models except 9402 D02 and E02 which do not support this feature.
(#2628) Cryptographic Processor -
Commercial: (No Longer
Available as of December 31, 1999)
This feature provides the same functions as
feature #2620 except that the data confidentiality functions of encryption and
decryption are provided using the new Commercial Data Masking Facility (CDMF)
instead of the DES algorithm. CDMF is a new scrambling technique for data
confidentiality and is intended as a substitute for the Data Encryption
Standard (DES). CDMF complies with U.S. export regulations and will normally be
available to most customers in most countries.
CDMF uses a 64 bit key, but provides the
effective strength of a 40-bit DES key. Feature #2628 is fully compatible with
feature #2620 with the exception of the encryption and decryption commands.
Interoperability on masked data between an AS/400 with feature #2628 and an
AS/400 with feature #2620 or other full DES systems is not supported.
Feature #2628 supports attachment of the
4754-L01 Security Interface Unit. This feature consists of an I/O processor
card with a cable to attach a 4754-L01, and a cable wrap connector (1 per
system). The 4754-L01, if desired, must be ordered separately.
This feature requires the support of OS/400
Version 2 Release 3 and PRPQ 5799-FBR or OS/400 Version 3 Release 1.0 or later,
and PRPQ 5799-XBY. PKA functions require OS/400 Version 3 Release 1.0 or later,
and PRPQ 5799-XBY. Feature #2628 is not supported by IBM Cryptographic
Support/400.
Publications: For additional information refer
to the following:
Card slots required: One. Maximums: One on all
D and later models except 9402 D02 and E02 which do not support this feature.
(#1101) Battery Power Unit: (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of July 1,
1997)
The Battery Power Unit is standard on the 9404
E and F models and optional on all other models.
This feature provides a minimum of five
minutes of backup power after power has been lost. The backup power is to the
entire system unit or expansion unit. If feature #1101 is installed in the
system unit, then an additional feature #1101 must be ordered for the expansion
unit. When power is lost, the system will continue to operate. When the battery
current is low, the system will begin an orderly shut down if power has not
returned. The Battery Power Unit consists of the batteries and the charging
circuit. Card slots used: None. Maximum: Two. One in the system unit and one in
the expansion unit.
(#4104) 4 MB Main Storage: This 4 MB Main Storage card is available for all
models of the 9404 except the Model D25 and all E and F models. This card plugs
directly into a card slot in the system unit and is the first card required
when adding main storage to the Model B10/B20/C10 or C20. Card slots used: One.
Maximum: One on the B10 or C10, two on the B20, C20, C25, D10, or D20.
Achieving the main storage maximum on the Model C25 requires that 8 MB Main
Storage (#3108) cards be installed in the available main storage card slots.
Therefore, any existing 4 MB Main Storage (#4104) cards would have to be
removed from the main storage slots.
Order by MES, feature code #3070, to upgrade 4
MB Main Storage (#4104) to 8 MB Main Storage (#3108).
(#4114) 4 MB Main Storage
Expansion: The 4 MB
Main Storage Expansion card plugs into the 4 MB or 8 MB Main Storage cards
#4104 or #3108. Up to two 4 MB Main Storage Expansion cards may be connected to
either the 4 MB or 8 MB Main Storage cards. This feature is available for all
models that support #4104 or #3108. Card slots used: None. Maximum: Two on the
Models B10 and C10 and four on the Models B20, C20, C25, D10, or D20.
(#2600) Magnetic Storage Device
Controller: (For IBM
US, No Longer Available as of July 31, 1996)
This feature is always required when DASD
features #6100, #6105, or #6108, are installed in the third DASD position of a
9404 Model B10, B20, C10, C20, or C25 System Units with the dual disk
installation feature, #7201, or in a Model B20, C20, or C25 attached #7100
Expansion Unit with the Dual Disk Install feature, #7202. One slot is required.
This feature is supported on the Models D10, D20, and D25 as part of an
upgrade, but is not orderable as a new feature. This device is not supported on
the E and F models.
(#5133) Feature Power Supply: (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of August
31, 1998)
Whenever the third DASD position is used in
either the 9404 System Unit or the Expansion Unit (#7100, #7110, or #7120), the
Feature Power Supply is required. Feature Power Supply is also required when
installing the Storage Expansion Unit (#7203). Card slots used: None. Maximum:
Two. One in the system unit and one in expansion unit.
(#6100) Disk Unit (315 MB): (Withdrawn from Marketing)
The 5 1/4-inch Disk Unit - 315 MB is used for
permanent storage on the 9404. One optional disk unit may be added to a B10 or
B20 System Unit. One or two optional disk units may be added to a C10, C20, or
C25 System Unit. Up to four disk units may be installed in a Model B20, C20 or
C25 attached expansion unit. If Dual Disk Install - Expansion Unit (#7202) is
on the #7100 Expansion Unit, the fourth position may not be used for DASD.
Three DASD units may be installed in a #7110 Expansion Unit. Utilizing the
third DASD position in either the system unit or the expansion unit requires
the Feature Power Supply (#5133) as a prerequisite. This feature is supported on
the D, E, and F models as part of an upgrade, but is not orderable as a new
feature. Card slots used: None.
(#6105) Single Disk Unit (320 MB): (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of September
29, 1995)
The 3 1/2-inch single drive, 320 MB DASD unit
is used for permanent storage in the 9404 System Unit and in attached #7100,
#7110, or #7120 Expansion Units. One or two optional Single Disk Units may be
added to the system unit. In addition, one to four optional Single Disk Units
may be added to a #7100 Expansion Unit. If Dual Disk Install - Expansion Unit
(#7202) is on the #7100 Expansion Unit, the fourth DASD position may not be
used. One to three 320 MB single disk units may be installed in a #7110 or
#7120 Expansion Unit. Adding DASD to the third DASD position in either the
system unit or to an expansion unit requires Feature Power Supply (#5133) as a
prerequisite. Feature #2600 or #2624 may also be required. Refer to features
#2600 and #2624 descriptions. Feature #6105 can be upgraded to a feature #6108
Dual Disk Unit. This feature is supported on F models as part of an upgrade,
but not orderable as a new feature.
This feature is not supported on the 7203
Storage Expansion Unit. Card Slots Used: None. Maximums:

Maximum DASD units in the Expansion Unit
(#7100) is limited to three if the optional Cartridge Tape Unit (#6346) or the
Dual Disk Install - Expansion Unit (#7202) is installed.
(#6106) Dual Disk Unit (640 MB): (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of November
4, 1994)
The Dual Disk Unit (640 MB) contains two 320
MB 3 1/2-inch DASD drives and can be installed in all 9404 models in the first
DASD position. This feature, available for field install only, by IBM service
representatives, is for upgrading the base DASD in a 9404 which still has a
single 315 MB disk unit in the first slot. The 315 MB disk unit which must be
removed from the first slot may be reinstalled in the third slot, or any
position in an expansion unit, or in any open position in another system.
IMPORTANT: Installing this feature requires a
total save and restore of all DASD on the system and reload of model unique
licensed internal code. In addition to the time this process takes, because it
involves licensed internal code, operating system code and customer data,
planning and care must be exercised to not experience data loss and its
associated recovery time. Instructions on the installation procedure are
included with feature #6106. An IBM service representative will install feature
#6106 and reload the model unique licensed internal code. The customer is
responsible for saving all data off the DASD before the installation of feature
#6106 and restoring all data after the IBM service representative completes the
installation. Card slots used: None. Maximums: One in the base (first position)
of a 9404 System Unit.
When feature #6106, Dual Disk Unit (640 MB),
is field installed in a system unit, it replaces the 315 MB disk unit in the
first position. The 315 MB disk unit which must be removed from the first
position may be reinstalled in the third position, (requires feature #5133), or
any position in an expansion unit, or in any open position in another system.
When that is done, specify codes need to be added to the system's inventory
record to accurately reflect the resulting DASD configuration.
When feature #6106 is added to a system unit
with two drives installed, and the drive in position one will be removed and
reinstalled in the third position, order specify code #9100, quantity two, on
the base system unit to indicate that both the original drives will remain in
the system unit. When #6106 is added to a system unit with three drives
installed, and the drive in the first position is removed, order specify code
#9100, quantity one, on the base system unit to indicate that the drive in the
second position will remain there. If the removed drive is subsequently
installed in an expansion unit, or in another system, a second #9100 specify
code should be ordered on the receiving system unit to indicate the presence of
an extra disk. These codes will be included automatically by the HONE
configurator, CFAS400, for orders to be entered via SYSLINK. If the
configurator is not used, the codes must be manually included in the configuration
and ordered.
This feature is orderable on the B, C, and D
models and is supported on the E and F models when ordered as a feature
conversion MES.
(#6107) Single Disk Unit (400 MB): (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of February
23, 1996)
This 3 1/2-inch single drive 400 MB DASD unit
is used for permanent storage in the 9404 B, C, D, E, and F model system units
and attached expansion units. One or two 400 MB single disk units may be added
to the system unit. One to four 400 MB single disk units may be added to a
#7100 Expansion Unit. If the dual disk install feature (#7202) is on the #7100
Expansion Unit, the fourth position may not be used for DASD. One to three 400
MB single disk units may be added to a #7110/#7120 Expansion Unit. One to two
400 MB single disk units may be added to the Storage Expansion Unit (#7203),
available on the Model D25 and E25 only. Whenever DASD is installed in the
third DASD position of either the system unit or an expansion unit, Feature
Power Supply (#5133) is required. Installing DASD in the third DASD position
may also require an additional storage device controller (#2600 or #2624). See
those feature descriptions for requirements.
Card slots used: None. Maximums: See the
following table for the maximum number of Single Disk Units (400 MB) (#6107)
that can be installed.

(#6120) Dual Disk Unit (800 MB): (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of February
23, 1996)
The Dual Disk Unit (800 MB) contains two 400
MB DASD drives and can be installed only in the B, C and D models in the first
DASD position. This feature, available for field installation is for upgrading
the base DASD in a B, C or D Model which was previously, or is being
concurrently upgraded from a Model that still has a single 315 MB disk unit in
the first DASD position. The 315 MB disk unit which must be removed from the
first DASD position may be reinstalled in the third DASD position, any position
in an Expansion Unit or in any open position in another system.
IMPORTANT: Installing this feature requires a
total save and restore of all DASD on the system and reload of model unique
licensed internal code. In addition to the time this process takes, because it
involves licensed internal code, operating system code and customer data,
planning and care must be exercised to not experience data loss and its
associated recovery time. Instructions on the installation procedure are
included with feature #6120. An IBM service representative will install feature
#6120 and reload the model unique licensed internal code. The customer is
responsible for saving all data off the DASD before the installation of feature
#6120 and restoring all data after the IBM service representative completes the
installation. Card slots used: None. Maximums: One in the base (first position)
of a 9404 B, C or D model system unit.
When feature #6120, Dual Disk Unit (800 MB),
is field installed in a system unit, it replaces the 315 MB disk unit in the
first position. The 315 MB disk unit which must be removed from the first
position may be reinstalled in the third position, (requires feature #5133), or
any position in an expansion unit, or in any open position in another system.
When that is done, specify codes need to be added to the system's inventory
record to accurately reflect the resulting DASD configuration.
When feature #6120 is added to a system unit
with two drives installed, and the drive in position one will be removed and
reinstalled in the third position, order specify code #9100, quantity two, on
the base system unit to indicate that both the original drives will remain in
the system unit. When #6120 is added to a system unit with three drives
installed, and the drive in the first position is removed, order specify code
#9100, quantity one, on the base system unit to indicate that the drive in the
second position will remain there. If the removed drive is subsequently
installed in an expansion unit, or in another system, a second #9100 specify
code should be ordered on the receiving system unit to indicate the presence of
an extra disk. These codes will be included automatically by the HONE
configurator, CFAS400, for orders to be entered via SYSLINK. If the
configurator is not used, the codes must be manually included in the
configuration and ordered.
Note: Dual Disk Unit (#6120) can be used on B and C models with OS/400 V2R1 or
higher.
(#6121) Additional Dual Disk Unit (800
MB): (For IBM US, No

used for permanent storage in the 9404 B, C, D, E, and F model system units and
attached expansion units. Model BXX and CXX System Units require Dual Disk
Install - System Unit #7201. Model D10 and D20 System Units require Dual Disk
Install - System Unit (#7201 or #9201). The #7100 Expansion Units require Dual
Disk Install - Expansion Unit (#7202). The #7110/#7120 Expansion Units The
#7110/#7120 Expansion Units have dual disk install capability. One or two
optional dual disk units may be added to a B, C, or D model system unit. One to
three dual disk units may be added to #7100, #7110, or #7120 Expansion Units.
One to two dual disk units may be added to the Storage Expansion Unit (#7203)
on the Model D25, E25, and FXX only. Whenever DASD is installed in the third
DASD position of either the system unit or the expansion unit, Feature Power
Supply (#5133) is required. Installing 800MB DASD in the third DASD position
requires an additional storage device controller (#2600, #2624). See those
feature descriptions for requirements.

(#2666) High Speed Communications
Adapter: (For IBM US,
No Longer Available as of August 31, 1998)
This feature provides the AS/400 system with
one communications port capable of T1/J1 (1.544Mbps) or E1 (2.048Mbps) speeds.
Communication over public or private Frame Relay or X.25 Networks or over point-to-
point non-switched SDLC lines is possible. Feature #2666 consists of a card, a
wrap connector and Licensed Internal Code. Three physical interface types are
offered for connection to external Data Communications Equipment (DCE) such as
Data Service Units (DSU), Channel Service Units (CSU) or multiplexers, which in
turn provide connection to the communication facilities.
The physical interfaces are:
The cable type plugged into the adapter and
OS/400 configuration parameters determine which of the three interfaces will be
used. One of the following cables must be specified when ordering feature
#2666:
Note 1: Use of this 24.4 meter (80 foot) V.35
cable restricts the maximum line speed to 64Kbps.
Note 2: Use of these longer cables requires
that the attaching Data Communications Equipment (DCE) support the V.36
transmitter signal element timing Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) source signal.
If, after initial installation a change of
interface type or cable length is desired, a separate cable may be ordered.
The High Speed Communications Adapter supports
Frame Relay, X.25 or SDLC protocols. The specific protocol to be used is
selected by OS/400 configuration commands. The Frame Relay, X.25 or SDLC code
is then loaded into the adapter when the line is enabled.
The Frame Relay code load supports up to 256
permanent virtual circuits on the 9406, through one physical port. The virtual
circuits can be individually configured for the following types of connections:
Logical Link Control (LLC) IEEE 802.2/ISO
8802.2 Type I (connectionless) and Type II (connection-oriented) services,
provided by the Frame Relay code, allow TCP/IP and SNA sessions over these
connections. Source Route Bridging function allows products on a remote
Token-Ring, FDDI or SDDI LAN to communicate with the AS/400 through a remote
bridge. Transparent Bridging is employed for the remote Ethernet and IEEE 802.3
LAN connections. AS/400 feature #2666 interoperates with IBM RouteXpander/2 and
the IBM 6611 Network Processor for bridged connections to remote Token-Ring
LANs. Interoperation with the IBM 6611 also provides a bridged connection to
remote IEEE 802.3 and Ethernet Version 2 LANs. TCP/IP Forum RFC 1490 (Request
For Comment - Multiprotocol Connect over Frame Relay) defines the industry
standard formats used to facilitate this bridged interoperation. Support of
these formats allows the High Speed Communications Adapter to also interoperate
with other industry standard bridges.

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.

Longer Available as of March 31, 1999)
The File Server I/O Processor features require
the support of OS/400 Version 3 Release 1.0, or later. Each FSIOP feature also
requires the licensed program, LAN Server/400 (5763-XZ1).
The maximum number of FSIOP features that may
be installed on the AS/400 is four, subject to the maximum number of LANs
allowed on the system. The maximum is the aggregate number of all types of
LANs. The Two-Port FSIOP is counted as two LANs. Card slots required: Two
(#6616) Integrated PC Server: (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of March 31,
1999)
The Integrated PC Server is the next step in
the evolution of the file serving IOP family. It contains a 166MHz Pentium
processor, two IOP memory card slots, and two LAN IOA slots.
Each IOP memory slot can contain either a 32MB
or a 128MB card, producing a range of IOP memory capacity from 32MB up to
256MB. At least one IOP memory feature card is required. The IOP memory feature
cards are:
Each LAN IOA slot can contain either a
Token-Ring IOA or an Ethernet IOA. At least one LAN IOA feature is required.
The Integrated PC Server is capable of supporting two IOAs in any combination.
The features for the LAN IOAs are:
Prerequisites: At least one memory feature
(either #2861 or #2862) and at least one LAN feature (either #6149 Token-Ring,
#6181 Ethernet). Requires OS/400 V3R2 with OS/400 no-charge feature #1978, V3R2
Integrated PC Server Support for AS/400.
Novell NetWare V4.1, Lotus Notes 4.1, and
FlowMark V2.3 are supported on the new Integrated PC Servers (features #2850
and #6616).
Lotus Domino (Notes Server) 4.5 will be
supported on the Integrated PC Servers beginning May 2, 1997. AS/400 support
for Domino will include a simplified installation procedure in addition to the
new function that Domino provides.
LAN Server for AS/400 is currently not
supported on the new Integrated PC Servers (Features #2850 and #6616).

Notes:
The 9404 D, E and F model communications
controllers and line adapters support a variety of protocols and line types:
·
Switched and nonswitched
point-to-point and multipoint lines are supported. X.25 lines are full duplex.
ASYNC lines can be full or half duplex.
o
X.21 SHM/MPS concurrent
operation is supported for any combination of up to six lines per port group
and up to six port groups with BSC, ASYNC, SDLC, and X.25 lines by the Six-line
Communications Controller.
See 2700 Charts P
and Q in Sales Manual pages for a list of supported networks. X.25 guidelines
are:
o
X.25 circuits can be
permanent or switched virtual circuits.
The ISDN Basic Rate
Interface Adapter (#2605) will provide the capability to attach to voice/data
transmission services having interfaces complying with the IBM ISDN
architecture which interprets Recommendation ISDN (1988) of the International
Telegraph and Telephone Consultative Committee (CCITT). This interface support
will be in conformance with the functional description contained in
"Integrated Services Digital Networks Data Link Control - Architecture
Reference" SC31-6826, and "Integrated Services Digital Networks
Circuit-Switching Signalling Control - Architecture Reference",
(SC31-6827). This ISDN feature supports attachment to the following networks:
Version 2 Release 3
of OS/400 adds support for what is commonly called ETSI/EURO ISDN. The Basic
Rate Interface Adapter (#2605) now also provides the capability to attach to
voice/data transmission services which comply with the guidelines specified in
the following European Telecommunication Standards:
5.
Integrated Services
Digital Network (ISDN); User-network interface layer 3 specifications for basic
call control; ETS 300 102-1
6.
Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN); User-network interface data link layer
specifications application of CCITT Recommendations Q.920/I.440; ETS 300 125
OS/400
configuration parameters are used to select the Basic Rate Interface Adapter
operation which is compatible with the ISDN transmission services being used.
Announcement of
attachment capability for other ISDN networks, or given release levels of these
networks, will depend on network availability and IBM's characterization of the
network interface. Selection of additional ISDN networks for attachment will be
based upon IBM's technical and business judgement in addressing the
requirements of its customers. Contact your sales representative for
availability in your country.
Connection to the
above networks is dependent on successful completion of Type Approval. (Type
Approval, as required by the network supplier, is testing to approve connection
of data communications equipment to a specified network.)
This adapter allows
communications via ISDN/IDLC with the following:
o
Other similarly equipped
AS/400 systems
Attachment of X.25
Packet Switched Networks is also supported using an ISDN B channel as the
access facility. The AS/400 will support two X.25 network access types:
Note: When using the ISDN Basic Rate Interface Adapter
(#2605), communications with other systems equipped with the IBM ISDN 7820 is
not supported if these systems do not support IDLC or X.25 protocols (either
natively or through a protocol converter box).
Using appropriate
T1/E1/J1 DCE (multiplexor or DSU/CSU), the 9404 Six-line communications
controller (#2623) with attached V.35 one-line adapters (#6153-6173) supports
SDLC data lines at speeds up to:
Two Six-line
Communications Controllers configured for T1/E1/J1 DCE attachment are supported
for 9404 D, E, and F models.

guidelines apply to the communication features on IBM 9404 B and C model
systems:
o
All Models can support
one Multiple Function IOP, one LAN adapter, and one or two Three-Line
Communications Controllers, concurrently. A Model B20/C20/C25 with the
expansion unit can support one Multiple Function IOP, one or two LAN Adapters,
and one to four Three-Line Communications Controllers, concurrently.
Some X.21 SHM/MPS
guidelines are:
§
A maximum of one port per
port group is supported per Multi-Function I/O processor.
§
One X.25 line supporting
up to sixteen X.25 virtual circuits may operate concurrently with a one-line or
a two-line X.21 SHM/MPS port group on the 9404 three-line communications
