RE: v6 of HMC was: LPAR - HMC/FSP vs. R/LPAR vs. APRM vs. ?

V7 is awesome. I could have sworn that our CE told us that there might
be a problem with V7 and older towers. We have a few 5094's and 5074's.
It didn't make sense to me but I kind of put V7 on the back burner
because.

Does anyone know if there are there any issues with V7 and older
hardware components?

Mike,

I used to be on V6 (maybe even V5 at the time of my enlightenment) of
HMC.
But once I saw V7 at IBM Rochester I had to have that - now. Yes, I
had
to trod carefully as I was so far behind I had to upgrade firmware,
upgrade hmc, upgrade firmware, upgrade hmc... to get to current but V7
rocks.
