Abstract

OS/2 Extended Edition Version 1.3 has been enhanced to provide increased performance in memory-constrained environments while reducing the minimum memory requirement from 3.5 MB to 3.0 MB. OS/2 EE Version 1.3 provides enhanced font support ACDI calls can be re-directed across a LAN to the LAN Asynchronous Connection Server Version 2.0 which provides line and modem pooling facilities for Asynchronous connections. The Database Manager DOS Database Requester supports Ethernet DIX V2.0 and IEEE 802.3.

OS/2 EE Version 1.3 supports the newly announced systems as described in the Specified Operating Environment section. (1).Trademark of Adobe Systems Incorporated (Calif. Corporation); Mountain View, CA.

The National Language Versions of OS/2 Extended Edition V1.2 were scheduled for availability beginning June 30, 1990. Problems were encountered during the translation and National Language creation process that could not be resolved in time to meet the delivery plans.

In order to provide high quality National Language Versions of OS/2 Extended Edition V1.3, at approximately the same time frame that the proper quality NLS V1.2 could have been available, IBM will not ship NLS V1.2 as announced. Customers will receive a quality National Language version, plus, benefit from the enhancements in OS/2 Extended Edition V1.3.

Service is being extended on OS/2 Extended Edition V1.1 as described in PLET ZS900120.

          Description
          USER PRODUCTIVITY
          PERFORMANCE
          OS/2 Extended  Edition  Version  1.3  performs  system  functions
          faster  than  OS/2  EE V1.2 in memory-constrained environments. A
          memory-constrained environment is caused when  applications  over
          commit system memory and disk swapping is necessary.
          For  many applications the improved program load facility of OS/2
          Extended Edition V1.3 provides a performance enhancement  of  two
          to  three  times  faster  than OS/2 EE V1.2 when loading programs
          from  Servers  to  Requesters.   Enhancements   for   any   given
          application  may  vary  outside of this range. The performance is
          influenced by the amount of  code  the  application  preloads  at
          start up time.
          The  minimum memory requirement is reduced from 3.5 MB to 3.0 MB.
          This  minimum  memory  will  allow   a   Communications   Manager
          application,  such  as  Terminal  Emulation  or LAN Requester, to
          operate concurrently with a DOS Compatibility mode application.
          Environments  that  require  more  than  3.0 MB of memory include
          using the Database Manager, multiple communication protocols,  or
          large  OS/2 applications.  Users should ensure that they have the
          capability to expand their memory beyond 3.0 MB.
          INSTALLABILITY
          The Communications Manager Batch Configuration  Utility  used  to
          create,  delete  and modify profiles has been enhanced to add SNA
          Gateway, and extend  3270  emulation,  SNA/APPC,  SDLC,  and  LAN
          environments.  System  Administrators can take advantage of these
          facilities  to  make  configuration  in  the   new   areas   more
          streamlined.
          The  Print  Manager  simplifies  the installation of printers and
          printer device drivers.  It  contains  the  interface  to  a  new
          industry  standard  Print  Spooler  that  is fast, efficient, and
          simplifies printing over a Local Area Network.
          OS/2 Installation  now  allows  optional  base  operating  system
          functions  to  be  selectively  written  to  disk. This permits a
          reduction in fixed disk requirements and allows additional  fixed
          disk space for user programs and data.
          BUSINESS SOLUTIONS
          FUNCTIONALITY
          OS/2  Extended  Edition V1.3 includes Adobe Type Manager and will
          be shipped with IBM's core  set  of  fonts.  Adobe  Type  Manager
          accepts  Adobe  Type  1  outline  fonts  to  provide high quality
          typographic text in a full range  of  sizes  and  styles  to  all
          supported  printers and displays. This provides, "What You See Is
          What You Get (WYSIWYG) technology for OS/2  Presentation  Manager
          (PM)  applications.  Over  600  different  Typefaces available in
          Adobe Type 1 Font format can now be used with OS/2.
          The  core  fonts  are Times New Roman, (R)3 Times New Roman Bold,
          Times New Roman Italic, Times New Roman Bold  Italic,  Helvetica,
          (TM)4 Helvetica Bold, Helvetica Italic,  Helvetica  Bold  Italic,
          Courier,  Courier  Bold,  Courier Italic, Courier Bold Italic and
          Symbol font.
          Adobe  Type  Manager  requires  no  new  application  programming
          interfaces and works with existing  OS/2  applications  that  use
          Presentation Manager Outline Fonts.
          AVIO  fonts  are  provided  allowing  a user to select a suitable
          command line window font to match the system display.
          The Communications Manager  component  of  OS/2  EE  has  several
          enhancements   including   the  ability  for  ACDI  calls  to  be
          re-directed across a LAN. This  allows  OS/2  EE  ASCII  terminal
          emulation  users  to use the modem and line pooling facilities of
          the IBM LAN Asynchronous Connection Server Version 2.0.  For more
          details, refer to PLET ZP90-0387 dated 5 September 1990.
          Etherand LAN support for the LUA (LU 0, 1, 2,  and  3)  protocols
          will  help  enable  solutions  for  financial  and other industry
          customers that require the combination of LUA  applications  over
          etherand LANs.
          3270  emulation  users  benefit  from the additional AVIO display
          fonts.  This allows greater choice to match the  application  and
          display  environments,  and  to  more  fully  utilize  the entire
          screen.
          OS/2 Extended Edition V1.3 has support for Type 2.1 (T2.1) Nodes.
          A workstation using OS/2 EE V1.3 can  function  as  a  T2.1  node
          attached   to  another  T2.1  node  in  the  non-subarea  network
          environment.  This workstation, when functioning as a  peripheral
          node,  can communicate with an SNA subarea network using the T2.1
          protocol if the proper levels of NCP and VTAM  are  used.    T2.1
          node support allows parallel LU6.2 sessions.
          The  DOS  Database  Requester supports the IBM Token-Ring, IBM PC
          Network, and ethernet LAN environments.   Either the  LAN  Server
          V1.3  or  the  LAN  Support Program are required for ethernet LAN
          support.   The DOS Database Requester  Workstation  requires  the
          installation of the LAN Support Program V1.2 and DOS 3.3 or later
          to  support the NETBIOS session used to communicate with the OS/2
          Extended Edition Database Manager server.
          GROWTH ENABLEMENT
          EXPLOITATION

          ACCESS OF EXTERNAL RESOURCES ACROSS DOMAINS
          Cross    domain  access  of resources can be accomplished through
          external resources definitions, which is a full screen  interface
          function.  Or through  the  use of appropriate API's, or by using
          explicit  NET  SHARE  and NET USE commands. Once a user's ID  and
          PASSWORD  are  validated, that  user can access resources outside
          of their logged on domain pro- vided the network administrator(s)
          have shared the resources and  pro- vided the appropriate  access
          permission.

          Adapter testing
          National   Software  Testing  Laboratories,  Inc.  (NSTL)  is  an
          independent laboratory which has indicated to IBM that  it  plans
          to  offer  an  OEM  ethernet  LAN  adapter  compatibility testing
          service for OS/2 Extended Edition (EE) V1.3.    Manufacturers  of
          Network  Driver Interface Specification (NDIS)-compliant ethernet
          LAN  adapters  will  be able, for a fee, to submit their adapters
          and NDIS drivers to NSTL for compatibility testing with  software
          supporting ethernet DIX V2.0 and IEEE 802.3 protocols provided in
          the  Communication Manager function of OS/2 EE V1.3. OS/2 EE V1.3
          Communications Manager's implementation of NDIS is based  on  the
          Microsoft  publication,  "LAN  Manager  Network  Driver Interface
          Specification, Version 1.0.1", dated May 4, 1988.   The  specific
          details  of IBM' s implementation will be available from IBM upon
          request to IBM Corporation, Department D53,  11400  Burnet  Road,
          Austin,  Texas,  78758.  Any  claims  of  compatibility with OS/2
          Extended Edition V1.3 will be  made  by  each  OEM  ethernet  LAN
          adapter  manufacturer and/or NSTL. NSTL has advised IBM that NSTL
          plans to announce availability of  this  service  in  the  fourth
          quarter  of  1990.  Inquiries  regarding  the  service  should be
          directed to NSTL at (215)  941-9600.  NSTL  certification  of  an
          OEM's  NDIS-compliant  ethernet  LAN adapters is not meant in any
          way to constitute an endorsement of the OEM's  products  by  IBM,
          and  IBM will not warrant nor provide technical or defect support
          for the claims made by such OEM or NSTL.
          Updated information for ordering API documentation.
          Previous  announcements  have  described  a   Business   Graphics
          Interface  and  an  Interpretive Services Interface. Instructions
          were given on how to request information about these  interfaces.

          network server workstations.
          MEMORY WORKSHEET
          The  minimum  memory  requirement  for an Operating System/2 mode
          only environment is 3.0MB.  This minimum memory will allow  users
          in  Operating  System/2  mode to execute a Communications Manager
          terminal emulation application, and an application program,  such
          as  a  spreadsheet  application  comparable  to  existing IBM DOS
          applications.  Users should ensure that they have the  capability
          to  expand  their  memory  beyond 3.0MB.   Environments likely to
          require  incremental  memory  include  concurrent  IBM   DOS-mode
          applications,  multiple  communications  protocols, or concurrent
          communications and database applications.  PS/2 Model  70  (8570)
          Models  E61, 121 and PS/2 Model 80 (8580) Models 111 and 311 uses
          128KB of  memory  for  hardware  system  use.    Memory  planning
          information is available in the "Information and Planning Guide".
          The  following  worksheets can be used to help determine capacity
          requirements for a particular OS/2 configuration.

          Notes:
          (1) Automatically installed but removable by changing the
                 PROTECTONLY=NO statement in the CONFIG.SYS file to
                 PROTECTONLY=YES. This memory is optionally available to
                 OS/2 applications whenever the DOS mode is in the
                 background.
          (2) This additional system memory allows better performance
                 for transient conditions such as program loading,
                 program termination and print spooling.
          (3) If the 3270 connection is LAN, SDLC, or X.25 (that is,
                 not a DFT coax connection), also include APPC
          (4) APPC is a prerequisite for this function. (Add the APPC
                 recommended memory to the total only once.)
          (5) Concurrent file transfer function requires 0.3Mb for each
                 session
          (6) Additional memory for Database buffer pool or sort heaps
                 may be required depending on the user's workload
          (7) Includes the necessary Database Services code.
                 Communications Manager Base and APPC are also required
                 for Remote Date Services.
          (8) Communications Manager base is a prerequisite for LAN
                 Requester. If the LAN Requester full screen panels are
                 not used (that is, only the command line interface is
                 used) then reduce the 0.4MB to 0.1 MB.
          (9) This depends on the installation parameters. Refer to the
                 "IBM OS/2 LAN Server Network Administrator's Reference"
                 for more information.
          (10) Provided by the supplier of the application
          (11) Dependent on the application and the user
          To  estimate memory requirements, add the recommended memory size
          for the operating system base to  the  size  for  each  installed
          function  and application, plus an allowance for user data buffer
          requirements.
          The numbers shown in the above  worksheet  give  the  recommended
          memory  size  in  MB  for concurrent operation of designated OS/2
          functions.  These numbers reflect the working  set  of  the  OS/2
          functions  listed,  not  the  total size of all the code and data
          areas that comprise the functions.  The quantities  shown  assume
          an  acceptable  degree of swapping.   Refer to 'Memory Management
          Techniques' in the "OS/2 Information and Planning  Guide"  for  a
          description of the method used to develop these quantities.
          The  memory  requirement is less if the user does not execute all
          installed functions and applications concurrently.  In that case,
          the required memory size is the sum of the base operating  system
          and  the particular functions and applications the user wishes to
          execute concurrently, plus an allowance for  user  data.    Using
          less  than  the  recommended memory size may increase the time to
          switch from  one  function  or  application  to  another,  reduce
          keystroke  responsiveness,  reduce  throughput,  and increase the
          size of  the  swap  data  file  (identified  in  the  fixed  disk
          estimating worksheet).
          FIXED DISK WORKSHEET
          A  minimum  of 30Mb of fixed disk is required on one or more disk
          drives.  This will allow a user in  Operating  System/2  mode  to
          execute  a Communications Manager application, and an application
          program, such as a spreadsheet application comparable to existing
          IBM DOS applications.   Users should ensure that  they  have  the
          capability  to  expand their fixed disk beyond 30Mb.  In addition
          to space for user-written programs and data files, some  examples
          of   environments   likely  to  increase  disk  requirements  are
          concurrent  installation  of  the  Communications  and   Database
          Managers,  and  the  extent  to  which  execution  of  concurrent
          applications occurs (requires segment  swap  areas).    In  these
          cases,  users  should  ensure  that  they  have the capability to
          expand their  fixed  disk  beyond  30Mb.    Fixed  disk  planning
          information is provided in "The Information and Planning Guide".

          Notes:
          (1) Includes components unique to Extended Edition. For
               Standard Edition, reduce this amount by 2.1MB
          (2) Approximate total of individually selectable options:
              SE Documentation = 0.5MB, EE Documentation = 0.5MB,
              Adobe fonts = 0.4MB, PM fonts = 0.5MB, HPFS = 0.3MB,
              Country support = 0.1MB, System utilities = 0.5MB,
              DOS utilities = 0.2MB, Picture utilities = 0.3MB,
              Diagnostic utilities = 0.2MB.
          (3) A 2MB to 4MB swap area is adequate for many environments.
              However,   the  swap   area  is   dynamically  allocated   as
              applications require more  memory than is available.   A swap
              data set larger or smaller than shown may be needed.
          (4) APPC is required for this function.
               (Include the APPC requirement  in the calculations only
               once.)
          (5) Add this number for each type of LAN adapter that is
              installed.
          (6) Communications Manager base and APPC are prerequisties for
              Remote Data Services.    If  the DOS Database Requester is
              installed on the Database Server,   an additional 1.1MB is
              required.
          (7) This number is  for table definitions and internal structures
              for each database.  This number is subject to many variables,
              such  as  additional  (secondary) or  larger  log  files  and
              temporary work files, and does not include user data.  Actual
              fixed disk requirements may differ.
          (8) Communications Manager base is a prerequisite for LAN
              Requester
          (9) Provided by the supplier of the application.
          (10) Dependent on the appliation and the user.
