My copy of the V8 IMS install guide says If you are installing different release levels of IMS in the same processor, note that the Type 2 and Type 4 SVCs are downward compatible. The Version 8 level can be used by versions 5, 6, and 7. However, version 5 cannot be used by versions 6, 7, and 8; version 6 cannot be used by versions 7 and 8; and version 7 cannot be used by version 8.
