Re: V7R4 UPGRADE

Yes it can, and I don’t disagree, however keeping the business running and keeping the source of your check whole has to be considered.

Sometimes we don’t have the luxury of a hard stance in the short term. That’s why you reduce it to writing with the appropriate people copied.

The trick is to get management to agree.

Don't think it can't happen you.

While I agree with both you and Rob about SMB1, sometimes outside forces control what we do.

You can temporarily set it to SMB1, (assuming that does not create havoc with other connections) and use that as the reason to get the older system updated?

When confronted with no support and significant security issues, usually that frees up the money. In the mean time the business keeps going. Duane, just make sure to put it in writing so downstream there’s no fall back on you.

I am told with V7R4 there is a new protocol SMBV2, it could cause issue with the fastfax processor mapping a drive to the IBMI, since the processor is on a non-supported MS OS. Has anyone came across this issue?



Any suggestions would be appreciated?



Thanks
