The 830 server initial installation and model upgrades are performed by IBM Service
representatives.
OS/400 V4R5 is required to support the 830 servers.
Card Technology
With the implementation of new PCI technologies, the Model 830 provides more flexibility in
the placement of IOPs and IOAs. This results in more efficient use of card slots, potentially
resulting in a lower cost of implementation.
Prior AS/400 models required input/output processors (IOPs) to be in specific slots in the
system and expansion towers. If high performance in a particular area was required, a single
input/output adapter (IOA) may have been assigned to a single IOP. This resulted in
unassigned slots in the tower, leaving valuable slots empty.
This PCI I/O structure enables customer setup of selected features of the Model 830. It also
enables Hot Plug PCI for adding and replacing hardware without taking the server down. A
full understanding of configuration rules associated with the various I/O features of the 830
system is required.
The 830 processors support four 32-bit and ten 32/64-bit PCI slots.
The following functions do not have equivalent function PCI cards for the Model 830:
• ASCII Adapter
• V.25 Autocall cable
• Select standby mode
• X.21 switched WAN dialup or Shorthold Mode WAN
• Asynchronous communication speeds of less than 300 bps
