  13. EMEA customer implementation : CVI Slovenia • Slovenian government experience ? • CVI is involved with IBM and ORACLE for more then 15 years. • CVI went through similar changes as IBM and ORACLE, and responding to the needs of CVI users is a really demanding and challenging objective. • Despite the reality, that CVI is the only installation of such an architecture (IBM S/390, z/900, Oracle, z/OS, z/VM, LINUX) in the region, IBM and ORACLE support is adequate. • We are looking forward for continuous cooperation between us. • Dusan.Salehar@gov.si

IBM eServer zSeries z800 system with two IFLs, on SLES 8, WAS V5, Oracle 9i database. • Reference : published article in a french IT newspaper, presentation at GSE. • Customer quote : “It combines Mainframe reliability and Distributed Computing flexibility”

  15. IFS system architecture for second test • z900 • 16 CPs • 32GB storage • 2 x Gigabit Ethernet OSA Card • 2 x Fast Ethernet OSA card • 4x Escon Card Fast Eth Switch Fast Eth • 2120 F20 ESS • 800GB Storage • 4 Escon Channel Room Camargue 18

  16. IFS Certification for Linux on zSeries • IFS is a package of ERP/CRM applications based on Oracle. They were interested in the consolidation capabilities of zSeries for their customers • First benchmark tests showed a limitation in number of users connected, due to 31bits architecture. A workaround was found by using a 31 bit Oracle under a 64 bits Linux • Tested in LPAR mode and with zVM guests, in standalone server and in a 2 instances RAC cluster • Response times in accordance with IFS baseline cross platform. Excellent vertical scalability. Excellent stability under heavy workload • Early tests for Oracle 9i on 64bits Linux. Allowed to fix some problems in Oracle installer, as well as a Bug in 31bit compatibility under 64bits architecture • IFS certified on zSeries, and Oracle 9i certified on SLES 8 64 bits

  17. zSeries Benchmark Center : zLT offering Internet Latest Technology Virtual servers 64-bit environment OPN HiperSockets, Guest LAN Firewall • Free of charges • Convenient remote access • On demand setup Software z/VM Linux Distributions SuSe, RedHat,... 31& 64 bit IBM Middleware WAS, CTG,MQ,DOMINO,DB2 ... z800 / z900 ESS Oracle software ORACLE 9i, 10g...
