Morning List. I am posting this with the hopes of taking our interactive response times from 2.5 to 3.5 seconds to sub second if that’s at all possible with our existing iseries 400, J.D. Edwards configuration.
I know performance is one of those intangibles that is difficult to identify. I’m hoping that any OS/400 shops out there can review our subsystem/shared pool configurations below and perhaps make a recommendation or two.
Our configuration is as follows, J.D. Edwards 8.11 SP1 (no ASU’s applied) - Tools release 8.98.3.3 - iSeries Power5 - OS/400 V5R4M5 - WAS 6.1.x. I do physically have three racks with seven partitions of which one I have recently upgraded to OS i7.1 on our DV LPAR. I’m doing PY next week and Production sometime in July. I mention this because perhaps i7.1 will be our magic bullet??
We have implemented all relevant performance recommendations in the most recent tuning doc (January 2008) by Jim Denton as well as the excellent doc from Collaborate by both Colin Dawes and Jim Denton.
IBM has done a through performance review of our Database/logic server as well as our Web server (using Job Watcher / iDoctor) and reported back that they see no issues on either box. Our Infrastructure/Network team report that bandwidth/throughput is faster than fast.
Our desktops/laptops are IE 8 with 2GB of ram or less, i5 2.4GHZ and Windows XP SP3.
Any suggestions on how to reduce the performance would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Michael
