Description

The base AS/400 Advanced System 9402 Model 200 System Unit contains the system processor, 8 MB of main storage, Multi-Function I/O Processor, one 1.03 GB 3 1/2-inch disk storage unit, and base support for twinaxial, ASCII or LocalTalk** workstations.

The processor in the base system has a relative processor performance rating of 2.5. In addition to the processor function, it contains 8 MB of main storage. Several system processor options are available with different levels of performance and corresponding main storage capacities.

The Multi-Function I/O Processor provides support for the service processor, integrated disk storage, integrated tape, external diskette and support for up to two communications adapters.

The MFIOP provides base support for a workstation controller or the Client Access/400 Console on LAN-based systems. One must be selected on the initial system order. The workstation controller supports either twinaxial, ASCII, or LocalTalk devices. The Client Access/400 console adapter supports a PC.

MFIOP specify #9172 provides base twinaxial support for attachment of up to 14 5250-type workstations (displays/printers) to two ports, with a maximum of seven devices per port.

MFIOP specify #9171 provides base ASCII workstation support up to 18 ASCII devices. A 6-port workstation attachment is supplied with the MFIOP when ASCII support is specified. An optional ASCII 12-port workstation attachment may be ordered.

Selecting MFIOP specify #9173, provides base support for LocalTalk devices, and allows the use of an Apple Macintosh** computer for the system console. A LocalTalk network can support up to 31 devices. Devices include Macintosh personal computers and printers, LocalTalk-compatible devices and the IBM Workstation Adapter feature.

The Client Access/400 Console option allows attachment of a PC as the system console for the AS/400 system. The attachment is via an asynchronous communication line on the AS/400 system to the serial port, standard on most PCs, using new console attachment cables. Client Access/400 software is required for a PC to provide the system console function.

MFIOP specify #9177 provides base support for a low-cost LAN solution. This MFIOP supports 16 sessions on a Token-Ring (Specify #9175) or Ethernet (Specify #9174) LAN. It requires selection of the Client Access/400 option on the initial order.

MFIOP specify #9176 provides base support for the Client Access/400 option. This MFIOP is selected for higher performance LAN only systems, where a separate LAN IOP is desired.

The first communications line port is standard and is equipped with an EIA 232/V.24 adapter that can be used with IBM's Electronic Customer Support (ECS) facility. Some optional adapters provide two communication line ports.

One removable magnetic tape media device is required on the 9402 Model 200 system. Options include 1/4-inch cartridge, 8mm or 1/2-inch tape units.

9402 Model 200 system users can reduce the impact of utility power interruptions and the associated system recovery activities by using the optional 9910 Uninterruptible Power System. Refer to the description in the New Device section for more information. Because of the important contribution this unit can have toward improved system availability, it is highly recommended.

3494 Highlights:

The 3490E-CXA and 3590-B1A tape drives within the library attach to the AS/400 in the same way as the 3490E-CXX and 3490 B1A tape drives. On the AS/400, one EIA 232/V.24 Line Adapter or a LAN attachment is required for each 3494 Tape Library.

Maximums: See AS/400 Model Summary tables.

Magstar MP Tape Subsystem

The Magstar MP Tape Subsystem is an automated tape subsystem for the AS/400 providing high levels of reliability, with lower price, capacity and performance than the 3590. Device native data rate is 2.2MB/sec, and up to 6.6MB/sec with compaction. Native capacity is 5GB per cartridge, and up to 15GB per cartridge with compaction. The Magstar MP tape cartridge is a new, unique design.

The Magstar MP Tape Subsystem is available in five models. The B00 is a stand-alone drive. The B01 and B11 are automated models with a single tape drives, supporting random access to two removable magazines, each supporting ten tape cartridges, with a total capacity of up to 300GB with compaction. The B01 is stand-alone, and the B11 is a rack mounted.

The B02 and the B12 are also automated models, supporting two tape drives and a total capacity up to 300GB with compaction. The B02 is stand-alone, and the B12 is a rack mounted. Models B02 and B12 support two modes of operation: Base Mode and Split Mode. In Base Mode, both drives are attached to a single host with access to 20 tapes for a maximum capacity of 300GB compacted. When configured in Split Mode, the 3570 subsystem is effectively split into two separate 10-cartridge libraries. In Split Mode, the 3570 attaches to two hosts, with each host accessing one drive and 10 tape cartridges for a maximum capacity of 150GB with compaction. This mode provides an effective solution for high-capacity, unattended backup, and does not require switches or recabling.

The Magstar MP Tape Subsystem attaches to all AS/400 DXX and later models, except the D02, E02, F02, and P03. Attachment is with feature #6501 (Tape/Disk Device Controller), supporting one or two drives. Alternate IPL is supported.

Backup Recovery and Media Services/400 (BRMS/400) 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 applications, OS/400 provides a command interface.

IBM software distribution will not be provided on Magstar MP media for OS/400 V3R1 or V3R2 (see RPQ 843910 for additional information). A second tape drive will be required. The Magstar MP Tape Subsystem cannot be shared by two systems. OS/400 V3R1 or later and PTFs are required.

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 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 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.

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.

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.

Multiconnectors

5299 Multiconnector and TTPA Adapter

The 5299 Multiconnector and Twinaxial to Telephone Twisted Pair Adapter (TTPA) may be used with appropriate telephone wiring. Initial and ongoing site cabling costs may be reduced with this wiring option.

The following non-IBM displays have been tested and found to work with the ASCII Workstation Controller:

·         TeleVideo 910, 925, 955 (2)

Non-IBM displays are supported only in U.S. English. A secondary keyboard mapping facility, like the 5208 Link Protocol Converter, is not available.

The ASCII Workstation Controller supports the following multilingual keyboards/character sets on the 316X and 3151 displays. The character sets are based on ISO standard 8859: Spanish, UK English, Italian, French, German, Canadian French, Belgian, Danish, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, Portuguese, Swiss French, and Swiss German. Of the above keyboard/character sets, the 3163 and 3264 do not offer ISO 8859 support of Spanish, UK English, Italian, French, German, and Canadian French. For these 3163 and 3164 keyboard/character sets, the ASCII Workstation Controller supports the national character set code pages that use character set ISO 646 with the addition of national characters as supported on these displays. ISO 8859 support for French German, Italian, Spanish, and UK English requires a corresponding 3161 feature.

For the 3101-23 display, the following keyboard/character sets are supported: Canadian French, French, German, Italian, and United Kingdom. The ASCII code pages for each are the national code pages as supported by the IBM 3101-23.

LAN Attached Displays

6250 X Terminal Family

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 connections.

IBM Personal Computer Support

The AS/400 supports the IBM Personal Computer, Models 5150, 5160, 5162 and 5170, as described in programming announcement letters dated February 3, 1987 and January 26, 1988.

Personal System/2 Support

The AS/400 supports the IBM Personal System/2 models and the IBM Personal Typing System. For information regarding attachment of specific Personal System/2 models refer to the model Sales Manual description under "List of Supported Products" for AS/400 attachment hardware and under "IBM Software Compatibility" for supported AS/400 software.

Conversion Considerations

Model conversions are offered to allow AS/400 9402 or 9404 systems (except B models) to move to the AS/400 Advanced System 9402 Model 200. A 9404 system will maintain the 9404 machine type number designation and serial number when converting to the new Model 200. These conversions will require the replacement of the system unit and some of the features. Most of the investments in hardware and software is preserved.

System upgrades involve substantial changes to an installed system. Accounting and tax implications may result and should be reviewed by your tax advisor.

The following features and devices CANNOT be converted or exchanged, and are NOT supported on the Model 200:

Fax Adapter

(#2664) Integrated Fax Adapter:   (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of December 31, 1999)

The Integrated Fax Adapter allows facsimile data to be entered, stored, retrieved, received and printed by the AS/400. Sending a FAX is as easy as printing or sending E-mail. This feature provides the AS/400 with two ports capable of transmission and receipt of facsimile data to or from a Group 3 capable fax machine, another AS/400 with an Integrated Fax Adapter, or PCs with appropriately programmed fax adapters. Feature #2664 consists of a card, a wrap cable (one per machine), two country- unique attachment couplers, telephone cables and Licensed Internal Code.

The Integrated Fax Adapter is supported by the Facsimile Support/400* licensed program offering that also supports a PS/2 LAN-based facsimile product. This program provides configuration parameters for the Integrated Fax Adapter, schedules fax transmissions between multiple adapters, and manages sending and receiving faxes to and from the adapter. The Integrated Fax Adapter and the PS/2 product can coexist. The Integrated Fax Adapter offers the advantages of being simpler to install, operate and manage since it is an integrated feature of the AS/400.

The Integrated Fax Adapter can simultaneously support two send, two receive, or one send and one receive operation. To the AS/400, the Integrated Fax Adapter appears as an IPDS* (Intelligent Printer Data Stream) printer for outbound faxes. Most output, including text, image, graphics and bar codes that can be printed on an AS/400 IPDS printer can be faxed via the Integrated Fax Adapter. Double Byte Character Sets (DBCS) are supported for in-bound faxes, but not for out-bound faxes.

Documents transmitted from the AS/400 through the Integrated Fax Adapter are limited to a maximum of approximately 30 text pages per port, per phone call. If two ports are configured for sending Fax documents and only one is being used, then the limit is raised to approximately 60 text pages. Resident cover pages are counted against this limit. A4, A3, and B4 page sizes are supported. The A3 page size is truncated to B4 on transmit.

The Integrated Fax Adapter is designed to be directly attached to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Attachment to a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) may give unsatisfactory results.

Feature #2664 supports the facsimile protocols defined in CCITT Blue Book Volume VII, Fascicle VII.3 Recommendations T.4 and T.30.

Feature #2664 supports the following compression algorithms in fax mode:

Feature #2664 supports the following modem standards:

Availability of this feature in any particular country is dependent on homologation approval in that country. Two country-unique couplers and country-specific Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) attachment cables (one for each port), are required. The couplers and cables are included with the Integrated Fax Adapter feature.

OS/400 Version 3 Release 0.5, or later, and Facsimile Support/400 Version 3 Release 0.5, or later, are required to support this feature.

Card slots used: One Maximum: Refer to System Unit Summary.

Cryptographic Processors

(#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 (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) Public Key Algorithm (PKA). 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. 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 3 Release 0.5 or V3R1, and PRPQ 5799-XBY. PKA Functions require V3R1. Feature #2620 is not supported by IBM Cryptographic Support/400.

Publications: For additional information refer to the following:

Card slots required: One. Maximums: One.

(#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) in cryptographic products exported to customers who have heretofore been unable to receive DES-based products due to government regulations. Feature #2628 with CDMF 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 3 Release 0.5 or V3R1, and PRPQ 5799-XBY. PKA Functions require V3R1. Feature #2628 is not supported by IBM Cryptographic Support/400.
