Workload and Performance
• #2427 Dedicated Domino Processor (4-way): The highest level of scalability and
performance within the iSeries Model 820.
The iSeries Dedicated Server for Domino Model 820 is the ideal model server for customers
who require scalability or capacity beyond what the Model 270 Dedicated Domino #2424
processor provides.
Customers who require scalability or capacity beyond what the Dedicated Server for Domino
820 provides should pursue iSeries Models 830 or 840 servers, or to deploy multiple servers
for their Domino applications.
• Upgradability: Processor feature conversions are supported within each Dedicated
Server for Domino model. Upgrades are not available from a Model 270 to a Model
820, nor from the previous Dedicated Server for Domino Model 170.
• Releases supported: Support is offered for Lotus Domino Release 5.01 or later. The
AS/400e Dedicated Server for Domino does not support Domino 4.6 or earlier.
The iSeries Dedicated Server for Domino is priced to be most competitive in these situations:
• Versus multiple single-function Intel Domino servers
• When reliability, manageability, and availability are a critical requirement in new or
current Domino implementations
The Dedicated Domino processors are tuned specifically for Lotus Domino workloads. They
provide sufficient capacity for non-Domino workloads, such as remote DB2 access, file
serving, Integrated xSeries Server for iSeries, and TCP/IP, which support a Domino
environment.
• Lotus Domino workloads: Defined as out-of-the-box functions such as:
– E-mail
– Calendars and scheduling
– Web serving
– Standard Lotus Domino template applications (for example, discussion database,
workflow, and so on) and custom developed applications written with Domino
Designer that perform no external program calls, relational database access, or Java
integration.
• Non-Domino workloads: For customers planning significant use of non-Domino
workloads, Dedicated Server for Domino should not be proposed. Instead, consider
iSeries Model 270 or 8xx with standard processor features.
Considerations for non-Domino workloads include:
