AST RESEARCH, INC. TECHNICAL BULLETIN #TB-0338 12/01/87 AST ADVANCED NETWARE/86 LIMITATIONS When installing the AST Advanced Netware/86 in non-dedicated mode the following limitations apply: 1. AST-ADVANCED NETWARE/86 requires a minimum of 384k of server memory for the network operating system when operating non-dedicated. This results in 256K left for workstation functions. 2. The workstation must then load DOS and ANET3, the workstation shell, leaving below minimum memory required to run most applications programs successfully. This can result in lock-ups of the server/workstation which crashes the entire network. 3. Installing ADVANCED NETWARE/86 on a 80286 microprocessor based machine in dedicated or non- dedicated mode will limit the power of the 80286 (AT type) to that of a 8086(XT type) on which protected mode (memory above 640k) features are not supported.
