<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Situation</h4><p><br /><img src="rzait508.gif" alt="Example of three servers running a business." /><br /> </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You
|
||
|
|
are the system administrator of a company with three servers boxes. Each server
|
||
|
|
performs unique tasks for your business. These servers are as follows:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>The IBM<sup>®</sup> system
|
||
|
|
runs the ordering system which is the core business application.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The UNIX<sup>®</sup> web
|
||
|
|
server is your corporate intranet web server.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The Microsoft<sup>®</sup> based file server is used for sharing
|
||
|
|
and backing up files.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>These servers provide services to computers on your company's network.
|
||
|
|
Your company wants to consolidate aging equipment to streamline the company's
|
||
|
|
information technology (IT) operations and to improve server availability.
|
||
|
|
The company also wants to increase application flexibility using an open-source
|
||
|
|
operating system. What should you do? </p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Solution</h4><p>The following image shows the consolidated iSeries server
|
||
|
|
running logical and guest partitions.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><img src="rzait509.gif" alt="Example
of a partitioned iSeries with Apache web server and Samba on a guest partition." /> </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>After researching and planning your partitioned environment,
|
||
|
|
you created four partitions on your new server using iSeries Navigator. You allocated the
|
||
|
|
minimum amount of hardware resources to your primary partition. All of the
|
||
|
|
information on your older AS/400<sup>®</sup> was migrated to partition P1 running OS/400<sup>®</sup> V5R2.
|
||
|
|
This release provides the flexibility of dynamically moving logical partition
|
||
|
|
resources among partitions without a system restart. You installed the Linux operating
|
||
|
|
system on partition P2 and P3. Partition P2 runs Apache and is your HTTP server.
|
||
|
|
You installed the Samba software to partition P3. This partition provides
|
||
|
|
file and print services to Server Message Block (SMB) clients.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>All of
|
||
|
|
the partitions own directly attached LAN adapters. Each of these LAN adapters
|
||
|
|
are connected to the corporate network. Your employees are still able to access
|
||
|
|
data from each of these partitions using either their laptop computers or
|
||
|
|
workstation.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Now that you have your new configuration, you are still
|
||
|
|
concerned about protecting the corporate network. You believe that your current
|
||
|
|
firewall solution is inadequate and you want a more customized firewall application.</p>
