RE: New to AS/400, Please help

Did V4R5 run on 270's? Wasn't V4 "pre key" days and V5R1 the first one which enforced keys?

You are correct that V5R4 is the last release to run on a 270.

Since it is no longer supported, how does one go about getting keys? I'm asking because I have an old 270 collecting dust due to a lack of keys. I got tired of reinstalling everything every 70ish days and powered it off.

So would I. I think i5/OS V5R4 was the last OS version supported on a 9406-270. :-)
