Re:V3R6 -> Y2K? -- MIDRANGE-L

David,

Our testers found V3R6 not to be completely Y2k compliant when interracting with
our software.  We have asked all our customers on RISC machines to be at least
at V3R7 and all customers on CISC machines to be at least at V3R2.  If at all
possible, in your place, I would try to upgrade to at least V3R7.

Good Luck!

Folks:
 
Has anyone done any testing of a V3R6 system in Y2K to see how it will
actually behave?
 
We've got a system that we thought would be replaced before Y2K, but it
turns out it won't... and we can't upgrade it to V3R7.  It's not really a
critical system, but we do use it for some important stuff.  
 
I'm curious as to how it will behave after the festivities.
 
Any insight and information would be appreciated.
 
We're considering just pushing the system date back a few months and letting
it ride.  Any experience with that?
 
Thanks!
 
david
