Don't worry - the other posters are incorrect. The interactive feature is not applicable to a 620-2179. You should however review the amount of memory you have. ...Neil "Rick DuVall" <R_C_DuVall@daaokc.com> Sent by: owner-midrange-l@midrange.com 2001/08/01 10:36 Please respond to MIDRANGE-L To: <MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com> cc: Subject: RE: Enough grunt for v4r5? Hi Everybody, Excuse me for busting in here. I have a 620 2179 on v4r3. Are you saying that if I upgrade to v4r5 that I will have to purchase interactive features for all 5250? That the act of upgrading the operating system alone can cause that? I had planned to never upgrade my machine due to the interactive tax - but if I understand what you are saying, this means I am stuck at v4r3 from now on! I love the AS/400, but my company can ill afford the interactive tax. Can somebody clarify this? Thanks Rick > Really, really, _really_ research the interactive processor feature... > Tom Hightower > If IBM had a nickle for every time CFINT kicked in... oh wait, they do... >>Matthias Oertli <oertlim@s054.aone.net.au> >>Sent by: owner-midrange-l@midrange.com >>08/01/01 04:10 AM >>Please respond to MIDRANGE-L To: midrange-l@midrange.com cc: Subject: Enough grunt for v4r5? Hi, We're looking at upgrading our box from v4r3 to v4r5 (just to get to a supported release). The machine is a 9402 400 with processor feature 2131. We have 160MB of RAM and 24GB of disk with 16GB usable (combination RAID/MIRROR) of which about 54% is used. It's supporting mainly green screen/telnet interactive users (about 30) and a tiny bit of netserver stuff. I wouldn't say we have performance problems, but response time sometimes is borderline, I would not want to see it get worse. My question: if we go to v4r5 do I have to expect diminished performance? Greatly diminished performance? If I was to upgrade the RAM to the maximum the box can take (I think about 224MB) would this make a big difference? Thanks for your help.
