RE: Highest OS Level for Hardware

["Urbanek, Marty" <Marty_Urbanek@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recall something like that too, Gord.

I remember it because the particular disk drives in our 820 made V5R3 the end 
of the line for it, which I had not anticipated.

subject: Highest OS Level for Hardware

I am pretty sure that I saw an IBM web page which said a 720 would not run
on any version of os400 after v5r3.  It also listed other hardware and how
high they could go.

I cannot find my bookmark for the page nor can I find it in a search on the
IBM sites or the midrange archives.

Has anyone else seen such a page?  Or am I smoking the cheap drugs again?


Thanks,


Gord
