IBM AS/400 Advanced 36 is a business computing
system that offers significant increases in capacity and performance for
System/36 customers. It is built on existing System/36 software functions and
interfaces and is a member of the AS/400 Advanced Series, sharing the 9402
packaging, and incorporating a new state-of-the-art 64-bit RISC processor.
Three pre-defined, specially priced system packages are offered to simplify the
ordering process. Each of the packages can be ordered with additional optional
features.
Model Abstract 9402-236: (For IBM US, No Longer Available as of December
12, 1997)
System/36 applications using non-privileged,
documented interfaces are object-code compatible on AS/400 Advanced 36.
Customers need not recompile or change their System/36 applications.
Interactive performance of IBM AS/400 Advanced 36 is from two to four times
faster than System/36, and batch performance is from four to eight times
faster.
AS/400 Advanced 36 Entry package contains the
system processor, 32MB of main storage, system software (System Support
Program, RPG II, Utilities, Query/36, PC Support/36), Multi-Function I/O
Processor, one 1.03GB, 3 1/2-inch disk storage unit, one communications line,
base support for 40 twinaxial workstations and an integrated 2.5GB 1/4-inch
cartridge tape unit.
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. Each
AS/400 Advanced 36 also supports:
Product Preview
In 1995, AS/400 Advanced 36 will support
coexistence of SSP and OS/400 within the same business computing system.
Customers will be able to continue to run their System/36 applications, add new
AS/400 applications or convert S/36 applications to AS/400 S/36 Environment or
AS/400 native environment at their own pace. In addition, hardware and software
enhancements will support greater performance and capacities plus continued
investment protection. Information will be shared as if there were two
interconnected systems. OS/400 coexistence will require nominal additional
hardware and an OS/400 license.
The winning combination of System/36 application
investment and new AS/400 Advanced 36 hardware to support it gives you one of
the world's most versatile and popular multi-user business computing systems.

Offers a new, high capacity, high performance
alternative to System/36 customers
AS/400 Advanced 36 System Packages
AS/400 Advanced 36 is offered in three
pre-defined packages:
Entry Package A
Growth Package B
Large Package C
Each package is a complete system, with basic
software, including System Support Program, RPGII, Utilities, Query/36 and PC
Support/36. This software is required by a majority of users.
The Entry Package A has 32MB of memory, a
1.03GB disk, a 2.5GB 1/4-inch cartridge tape drive, 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, adds a second 1.03GB
disk, a second EIA 232/V.24 communications line and cable, two IOP slots, and a
feature power unit to the Entry Package A configuration.
The Large Package C, builds on the Growth
Package B by adding an additional 32MB of memory, a third 1.03GB disk, support
for an additional 40 workstations (for a total of 80 workstations), four more
IOP slots, and a six line communications controller.
Optional items may be added to the packages on
the initial order or after installation.
Battery backup is not part of the base unit
and an uninterruptible power system is recommended. Refer to the New Device
section for more information.
The compact, floor-standing AS/400 Advanced 36
system unit conforms to quiet-office acoustical environment standards.

Customer Responsibilities
AS/400 Advanced 36 initial installation will
be performed by the customer. Model upgrades and feature installations will be
performed by IBM service representatives.
The customer is responsible for connection of
external cables and associated displays and printers. Customers who request IBM
service personnel to perform these activities are subject to a charge.
Customer responsibilities include:
Workstation Support
Note: Some of these devices may no longer be available. Always check
announcement letters to ensure if specific devices listed here are available.
Remote Workstation Controllers
Twinaxial Displays
Coaxial Displays
The IBM 3174 and 3274 remote attachment allows
IBM 3270 displays to be attached via coaxial wiring. This attachment gives IBM
3270 displays access to most 5250 applications with essentially 5291 or 5292-1
functions.
Protocol Converters
Note: Some of these features may no longer be available. Always check
announcement letters to ensure if specific features listed here are available.
Printers

announcement letters to ensure if specific printers listed here are available.
DBCS Printers
Other Devices Supported
One optional diskette drive may be selected, either
a 9331 or feature code #6135 on AS/400 Advanced 36.
9331 Diskette Unit Models 11 and 12
The 9331 Model 11 is an eight-inch diskette
drive packaged in a stand- alone unit. The eight-inch diskette unit allows the
customer to migrate and exchange data with existing eight-inch diskette based
systems and data entry devices such as System/36 Models 5360, 5362, System/38
Model 5382 System Units, and AS/400.
Requires: Diskette Adapter #6146 on AS/400
Advanced 36.
The 9331 Model 12 is a 5 1/4-inch diskette
drive, also packaged in a stand-alone unit. The 5-1/4-inch diskette drive is
used for data interchange with 5 1/4-inch based System/36 Model 5363 or 5364
and AS/400.

AS/400 Advanced 36 does not support the
following System/36 supported devices or features:
SSP operating system on AS/400 Advanced 36
does not support the following features that are available in the System/36
Environment on AS/400 Advanced System:
·
DASD Device protection through Mirroring or RAID
The AS/400 Advanced 36 will only support
compression when reading diskettes. It will not write compressed diskettes.
Cable Orders
No system cables are required.
The minimum system configuration for a 9402
Model 236 consists of a system unit and a system console. The system console
may include any supported display or IBM Personal Computer emulating a
supported display attached to a workstation controller (twinaxial). The console
should be located within six meters (20 feet) of the system control panel which
must be viewable from the console. Although required, the system console is not
a component of the base system unit.
A printer is not required for service.
However, IBM's ability to diagnose the system and perform upgrades is greatly
enhanced when a printer is available.
Battery backup is not part of the base unit,
and an uninterruptible power system is recommended. Refer to the "New
Device Support" section for more information.
Although not required for hardware service,
IBM's ability to service the system is greatly enhanced when a voice telephone
is available within view of the system. The telephone must not be connected to
phone mail or an answering machine, since the ability to receive calls on this
telephone is important in the event support personnel need to reach the
customer engineer. This telephone line is in addition to any that may be
installed to send or receive data through a communications line.
AS/400 Advanced 36 requires the support of SSP
Release 7.1 (5727-SSP).

send/receive functions between systems. Data is transferred between the two
systems at the system workstation controller data interchange speed.
The Transition Aid Program is shipped to
AS/400 Advanced 36 customers and will run on both AS/400 Advanced 36 and the
System/36. It is shipped on both 5 1/4-inch and 8-inch diskettes.

one-line Adapter, supporting up to a maximum of two lines.
Two communications adapters are supported by
the MFIOP. The first is a V.24 adapter. The second can be used as a diskette
adapter instead of a communication adapter. A diskette adapter does not
