That is interesting. Apparently, IBM (VM group) is no longer supporting 31 bit hardware. It seems to me that IBM always kept the last release of an OS available for a particular hardware platform available for order. Perhaps it is just supported.
I have a MP3000 client, that I have been hinting that VM would be something they need to look at, again. If z/VM 4.x isn't available and z/VM 5.x doesn't support 31 bit hardware, I need to do some back tracking<G>. Tom Duerbusch THD Consulting >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6/20/2006 10:03 AM >>> Hello Listers, sorry to bother you guys again. We called IBM software to order z/VM 4.40. However, the rep. said it was out of marketing since March 2006. He can't ship it to us. But, he said, if we can get a copy of the distribution tape, IBM will licence it for us. Please contact me off-list if you are willing to lend a copy of the distribution tape for z/VM 4.40 for 3390 system. Greatly appreciated.
