EBCDIC to ASCII Coversion Rate

Hi
I am working on a SAP sizing for an AS/400 ASCII system in the US. It seems
IBM have told the client that they do not recommend the mixed win2k/as400
environment and the IBM sizing folk seem not to understand that all future
AS/400 SAP systems after 4.6c will have to be GLS (ASCII). Hopefully they will
wake up in the near future.

Hello Volker.

Thanks for the information. At the moment, we do not have any plans to do a
conversion to ASCII. I was just getting some numbers together for future
sizing.

Thanks again,
Chris

Hi Chris,

the growth in size is just for the R3PRDDATA, but as there will be for the
database about 90% (or more) of the total diskusage, it won't make a big
difference.

As we tried to enhance and optimize the latest ASCII kernels, it could even
be that there is no need for more memory and CPU. So, it is somewhere
between 0 and 10% each. EIf your system has enough capacity at the moment,
it won't be necessary to enhance it.

Regards

Volker

Alan, one more question.

Am I correct in assuming that these calculations are for the total
system (PRD LPAR) or and not for the R3PRDDATA library size alone?

Thanks,
Chris
