Subject: Re: IBM i Access for Web vs IBM Navigator for i

2GB Ram on a p5 machine makes for an awfull slow system overall.
I have a client where the IBM rep had somehow configured the old-style LPAR options and neutered the machine from 4Gb to 1Gb. They bought a memory upgrade to 8Gb from us. When attempting to rebalance the memory pools i noticed that the sum of all pulls was only 1Gb, but the hardware was correctly recognized...
Took me almost 2 hours to figure that one out. But after that the system went from shutting down abnormally on every restart (due to having so much temporal storage used that the puny 5703 CTL couldnt write out all pages on the 3600 timeout) to shutting down in less than 3 minutes. And that was a 600cpw machine with v5r3...

We have a System i 520 with 2gb memory. I would use the web navigator
more often, but it is horrifically slow. When I click "Log in" it is
literally
45-60 seconds until it comes up. Is that because we only have 2gb memory?

The web interface is a great improvement. I think IBM should put all
the team to improve it, leaving the old navegator alone. I'm sure
userd will go to the web without need to be forced, like happened
between the green screen and the graphical but prone to problems and
hard to support navegator.

Rob,

Most definitely.

Just as when Navigator for i "replaced" the green screen, IBM has
announced that the functionality of Navigator for i is now frozen.
There
are already things popping up in the web console that are not
supported
in
any other way. A customer of mine recently pointed out a new option
in
the
Advanced Job Scheduler that only exists in the web console version.

I also prefer the ability to access the system using a browser from
anywhere. Although it has not happened yet, I fantasize about
fixing a system problem from an Internet cafe in Paris. To save
further posts
from
those who know me well, I'll admit that the fantasy here is me
fixing a system problem, not visiting Paris.

Cheers,

Bill
