Abstract

Content

The following IBM iSeries, eServer, System i and IBM Power® Systems models are supported to run IBM Lotus Domino. The new IBM Power Systems unify IBM's integrated platform, IBM System i™, with its UNIX operating system platform, IBM System p™.  For more information see: http://www.ibm.com/systems/power/


System models
The following models are recommended:
  • iSeries 270, 810, 820, 825, 800-2464 and above
  • eServer i5 520-0901 and above
  • System i 9405-520 Express models and 9406-520 Value models WITH accelerator processor feature
  • System i 9407-515, 9406-520, 9406-525 and above
  • IBM Power™ 520 Express and above

The following models are NOT supported:
  • iSeries 800-2463
  • eServer i5 520-0900
  • System i 9405-520 Express models and 9406-520 Value models WITHOUT accelerator processor feature

Memory requirements
  • 512 MB or more minimum
  • 512 MB or more per Domino server

Disk requirements
  • 2GB of free space minimum
  • 4 or more drives recommended
Use these values as general guidelines for minimum memory and disk space. The requirements for your environment may be different.  For more information about sizing IBM Power Systems for Domino, use the IBM Systems Workload Estimator.  The Estimator is available at the following Web site: http://www-912.ibm.com/estimator

Note: Although a Domino server can run on any POWER systems, the iSeries and System i server models are optimized for client/server applications such as Domino.  iSeries 270, 800-2464, 810-2465, and eServer i5 520-0901 and 520-0902 are recommended for Notes-based mail or light applications only.  Partial processor models may not be suitable for compute-intensive applications;  IBM eServer i5 520-0903 or higher are recommended for CPU-intensive workloads.

See the "System i Performance Capabilities Reference" for more details on specific models: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/systems/scope/i5os/topic/books/sc410607.pdf
