Using the IBM S/390 Application StarterPak

This redbook describes the hardware and software included in the IBM S/390 Application StarterPak, and some early experiences in using this product. An Application StarterPak is a complete OS/390 base -- hardware and software -- providing a platform for implementing a major S/390 application without impacting existing production machines. The hardware is a low-end CMOS machine, with one or two processors; the software is based on OS/390 2.4 or later.

It is important to understand the advantages and limitations of the StarterPak concept. It provides a quite limited number of options and upgrade potential, in return for a very attractive price and a simplified ordering and installation process. This redbook describes the boundaries of the possible configurations and discusses the implications inherent in these configurations.
