RE: Which PASE AIX Version

Thanks, I wasn't asking about installing PASE. That's already done. I was wondering which Power processor the Pulsar was. The BONIC/SETI versions seemed to be optimized for different ones and they referred to them a P3, P4, P5. I have determined the Pulsar is a P3.

You have to match the version of PASE according to the version of OS400
- you can't install just any version of PASE.

This link -
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/rzalf/rzalfplanning.htm
- has a chart that shows the AIX version for each version of PASE - for your V5R1 it is AIX 4.3, in both the 32 and 64 bit versions.

Good luck finding a binary that old!

I have a 270 22A5 which has a RISC-Pulsar processor running v5r1. I'm looking at running SETI BONIC in the PASE environment. I'm wondering which is the best AIX version to install. My 1st thought was the "BONIC Client 6.10.58" as shown below. But, why I'm questioning all of this is the last line at the bottom "12% faster than the PPC/Power application on Power3/4/5 CPUs." I don't know what Power chip my 270 has.
