To test whether WebSphere Real Time for AIX on 32-bit POWER is supported on a specific System p® system, at the system prompt type:
lscfg -p | fgrep Architecture
Supported platforms reply as follows:
Model Architecture: chrp

Only "Common Hardware Reference Platform" (CHRP) systems are supported by WebSphere Real Time for AIX on 32-bit POWER.

A minimum of 512 MB of physical memory is required for simple applications. For good performance, more complex applications require a larger memory configuration.

WebSphere Real Time for AIX on 32-bit POWER operates on Very Large Symmetric Multiprocessor systems. However, the additional computational power of systems with more than eight physical processor cores might give diminishing benefits. To optimize the extra capacity of these systems, multiple LPARs with up to eight physical processors each are recommended.
