RE: WAS 3.5 and OS version....

["Frances Stewart" <francess@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The $$$ thing is one difference.
The About WebSphere link off the main web site page will provide links to
product features for the two editions. Bring up two browser windows.
In one window go to:
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/products/websphere/product/aboutAE35.html  (this
is the About Advanced 3.5 page).
In the other window go to:
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/products/websphere/product/aboutSE35.html (this
is the About Standard 3.5 page).
You should be able to compare the differences in product features for the
two editions.

The Packaging link off our main gives ordering information for the two
editions.

What I see is missing is the following that I usually say:
Standard Edition is a separately orderable, FREE, LPO (Licensed Program
Option).
Advanced Edition is a separately orderable, chargeable, LPO (I shall
whisper that its current list price is $7500 per CPU).

What's the difference between Standard and Advanced?  Is it a $$$$ thing?
or
some sort of functionality?

Forgive the stupid questions; the site just isn't clear. We're having a
tough time getting answers through the usual channels....

thanks

The PTFs link from the WebSphere Application Server for iSeries 400  web
site contains the most up to date PTF information for the product.

Specifically see
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/products/websphere/services/serviceAE35_V4R5.html


for Advanced Edition
See
http://www.iseries.ibm.com/products/websphere/services/serviceSE35_V4R5.html


for Standard Edition

If you read through the appropriate page you will find that it tells you
the current group PTF to obtain, the minimum cumulative PTF package you
need to have on, and any additional PTFs needed that are not included in
the cumulative PTF package or our group PTF.  Please note that our group
PTF includes the Java group PTF, DB2/400 group PTF and IBM HTTP Server
group PTF, as well as several additional indivdual PTFs for the base
operating system, AS/400 Toolbox for Java, and JDK 1.2.

NOTE: v3.5 requires JDK1.2 (it will not work with JDK 1.1.x). It is best if
you install JDK 1.2 (5769JV1 option 3), prior to installing the
appropriating cumulative PTF package and the WebSphere group PTF.  If you
do not, or if you ever re-install 5769JV1, be sure to re-apply the
cumulative PTF package and re-apply the WebSphere group PTF.

Be sure to read the Migration documentation as well (Take Migration link
from our web site: http://www.iseries.ibm.com/products/websphere/).

We're exploring upgrading to WAS 3.5... we are also updating the OS to
v4r5.
Will the upgrade to v4r5 give us what we need to go to WAS 3.5 or do we
need
some other PTFs?

I read the PTF list on ibm.com but I'm still unsure.  Can anyone provide a
little guidance???

Thanks in advance...
