==============

Ok, now I've been part of a Go Live for AX 2009 Sp1 and I have gained 3 weeks of operational experience. It's to early to draw any definitive conclusions, but this is a short summary of my key observations in random order:

• The decision to go for Windows Server 2008 x64 Standard was right
• The decision to go for SQL Server 2005 Sp2 x64 Standard in a active-passive failover cluster was probably right, except for some breaks in the database communication (exact reason still unknown)
• AIF performs better than expected even without utilizing paralell processing on several AOS instances (2 000 messages can easily be processed in a couple of minutes utilizing one uni directional channel)
• The BizTalk Adapter haven't caused us any spesific issues so far
• Pay extra attention when submitting batch jobs to the batch queue (or when constructing new batch jobs) and don't expect all logic to execute automatically under the new Batch Framework (look out for logic tied to the client tier even in the standard application and plan for adding some extra logic to keep the code compatible in both interactive and batch mode)
• Look out for hot fixes from Microsoft (check Partnersource or Customersource freqently) and plan for some delays getting a response (new installations should evaluate the roll up package released late in February)

Bottom line; the Batch Framework is worth paying special attention to during analysis, design, build and testing.
