Re: IBM Fax support for iSeries

Peter,
There certainly were hardware combinations not supported after v5r2 as listed 
in the links Rob provided, and it is
clear IBM did not give us a nice, neat chart to explain it. The problem IBM has is clearly identifying what can, cannot run on each type of 7xx, 8xx,5xx and whatever else can run V5r3 & 4, plus IBM shipping product labelled v5r2 for a v5r3 & 4 OS. Still not an excuse for what the BP did... This has happened every time an OS runs 
on diff types of platform hardware.

Rob,
I'm very surprised to learn from these responses that 5798FAX can run on V5R4.
When we upgraded from an 830 w/V5R2 to a partitioned 570 w/V5R3 our B.P. told us in no uncertain terms that the fax product wasn't going to be supported. We had originally purchased it to run on our old 830 intending to migrate from the RMTi fax product because that vendor had decided to stop supporting it. In the end we had to switch gears and convert to Quadrant's FastFax product instead.
I read earlier in this thread that it's very hardware dependent, so I'd like to know what hardware it's supported on? 

Pete

 Where do you get this information?  I am running 5798FAX on V5R4, fully
 supported.
