iSeries Server 270 119iSeries Server 270Interactive FeaturesThe Model 270 supports various levels of interactive performance through the installation ofinteractive features. See the Model 270 Processor/Interactive Feature Table on page 116.Interactive CPW is an approximate value reflecting the portion of Processor CPW that can beused for workloads performing interactive-based tasks (5250). An iSeries server 270 can beeffectively managed when there is no Interactive CPW (Interactive CPW = 0) available forapplication workloads. The zero interactive CPW is intended to support a single interactivejob for system administrative functions.• A job started from a console (green screen) to perform a system administrationfunction is not considered interactive work if it is the only interactive job running (singleinteractive job exception).• A system administration job submitted to batch is not considered interactive work.• The use of Operations Navigator (GUI administration functions) is not consideredinteractive work.For a discussion of how these features influence system performance, see “IBM WorkloadEstimator for AS/400” on page 42.The available interactive options are shown in the Model 270 Processor/Interactive FeatureTable on page 116.A feature cross-reference table can be used to relate Processor Feature Code to theProcessor and Interactive features visible in the AS/400e configurator. The ProcessorFeature Code is found by displaying the QPRCFEAT system value or in the rackconfiguration. The Processor Feature Code is used when ordering software license keys.Processor Group is determined by a combination of the Processor and Interactive Feature.The following table provides a cross reference.Processor Interactive Feature Processor Feature Processor Group#2431 #1518 #23E7 P10#2432#1516 #23F0 P10#1519 #23F1 P10#2434#1516 #23F4 P20#1520 #23F5 P20
