RE: HMC Console necessary?

Tom,

V7R7 is needed for Power7, so if the machine (HMC) can run V7R7 then
it can support Power7.

My problem is not whether my HMC will support a certain version of software
but whether the current HMC hardware and software can manage a Power7 box.
Perhaps that's understood but I need to confirm it before I tell my boss I
just saved us $10k.
I have asked out TechLine guy at IBM to give me (us) a definitive answer.
I'll report on what I learn.

Thanks again for your advice and help.

Tom Garvey

I see that the C03 will not support the latest.

Where are you finding information about the C04?

I also have the 7310-C04 and I am running V7R3.5.0.3. It is currently
managing our Power5 520 and will be managing our new Power 7 8202-E4B.
Our business partner tells us it will work. I was told that it will not
run the latest and greatest HMC software. I will have to express my
concerns with my sales rep.
