Security Wizard
Security Wizard, an Operations Navigator tool, asks high-level questions about your AS/400 system and then recommends how to configure base system security.
Management Central
Immediate and up-to-the-minute performance information about systems being managed. Administrators or operators with multiple systems and networks can easily gather, analyze, and react to this information. System groups let you control and monitor multiple AS/400 systems in your network from a central AS/400 server. You can monitor:
- CPU utilization (average, interactive)
- Interactive response time
- Batch logical I/O
- Transaction rates
- Disk space utilization
- Communications and disk IOPs
- Communications lines
- LANs
- Disk arm utilization
- Machine pool faulting rates (maximum only)
- Base/user pool faulting rates
- CPU utilization (Lite) (average only)
- Monitor multiple systems or groups
- Establish thresholds for each monitor
- Automatically execute programs/actions on threshold events
- View threshold events
Operations Console
The AS/400 supports a new directly attached, full-function 5250 PC console that includes a graphical control panel application. The user interface of the control panel application resembles its hardware counterpart. The console and control panel applications can be used together or separately. Each requires direct cable attachment to an AS/400 system. Each six-meter cable must be purchased separately from IBM for the AS/400 model being used.
The direct-attach console can also serve as a gateway for a dial-in remote console. The remote console can also be configured to run the 5250 emulator application and/or the graphical control panel application. Both applications enable you to perform system operations tasks, for example, backup and recovery, with the AS/400 systems and the operations staff in physically separate locations. The connection between the remote and direct-attach console uses Windows dial-up networking (PPP) with the direct-attach console employing Windows NT (R) Remote Access Service (RAS) for access.
The applications are included on the Operations Navigator CD-ROM shipped with OS/400 V4R3. They are installed and used from PCs using the Windows NT Workstation 4.0 (required for the direct-attach console when it serves as a remote console gateway). OS/400 V4R3 is always required for direct/remote 5250 console attachment. The control panel application functions stand-alone with any AS/400 Advanced Series or e-Series system.
Client Access for Windows 95, 98, and NT 4.0
The Client Access for Windows 95/NT client now supports running Microsoft (TM) Windows 98 operating system.
Full-function AFP (TM) Workbench Viewer Now Included
The 32-bit full-function AFP Workbench viewer is included with no additional purchase needed. The Viewer can display PC information stored in AS/400 spooled files. It can also be used to view image files on your PC.
AS/400 SDK for ActiveX and OLE DB
Visual Basic Wizards enable programmers to easily build applications to access AS/400 resources via record level access, SQL, stored procedures, data queues, programs, and CL commands.
Microsoft ODBC 3.0 Driver Manager Included
The Windows 95/NT client provides the Microsoft ODBC Driver Manager. Applications written to either ODBC 2.0 or ODBC 3.0 can access AS/400 database information over any supported connectivity.
Operations Console
Operations Console connects to an AS/400 through TCP/IP and improves local and remote AS/400 system operations and service from a PC as it provides an AS/400 System console session and a graphical control panel application.
Enhancements for TCP/IP Networks
- IBM 5250 Express twinax adapter cards and other selected IBM
twinax adapter cards (including twinax and unshielded twisted pair
wiring) can be used to connect PCs to AS/400 systems via the
TCP/IP protocol. Refer to Information APAR II11022.

Specified Operating Environment
Hardware Requirements: AS/400e server 150
Refer to Hardware Announcement 198-024 dated February 10, 1998.
If you have a new V4R3 system, ensure the free DASD space is large enough to install all your application programs and data files and run your programs.
The preloaded functions of BasePak take 2.4 GB of DASD space. You can load the optional items of BasePak using the licensed program installation menu. These will require 0.4 GB of DASD space if all functions are loaded. When you do this, you must add the size of the added functions to the amount of DASD space occupied by BasePak so that you can calculate the remaining DASD space available for your applications and data.
At least 500 MB of free DASD space is required to upgrade AS/400 Licensed Internal Code and OS/400 from V3R7, V4R1. or V4R2 to V4R3. To upgrade to V4R3, check the amount of free space available using the Work with System Status command (WRKSYSSTS). If you have less than 500 MB of free space available, increase your free space to 500 MB by deleting unneeded programs and files (after saving them on tape) or by adding more DASD to your system, before upgrading.
