Re: Upgrade Question



I have not seen any of the proposals for the upgrade. The software is
for the OS/400 only. I am currently looking into all of the 3rd party
software we are running.
As far as I know we are current on our SWMA.

It Depends? :-(

Seriously it does. What release are you on and how many processors are

licensed before and after this upgrade? Any other software besides IBM

i? Are you current on all SWMA for all your software?

We do not have sufficient data to process this request......

Hello all,

We are looking upgrading our IBM i from a 550 to a Power 7 740. We
are
getting conflicting answers. One BP said that we would incur
spending
more for the software with the upgrade. A second BP said that there
should no increase for the software.
What is the correct answer?
