SLES 10 SP1 and SLES 11 SP1/2 run fine under zVM 6.3. We are anticipating it to work as well in 6.4.

I can tell you that it did run on SLES 11. SLES 10 SP1 is also out of support so unless you have an extended support contract, you'd should plan on getting off that. Probably your quickest option is to run the 10 to 11 SP4 upgrade process (make a good backup first). Then work on getting WMB to Integration Bus 9. Or just build new servers with 12 and Integration Bus 9 and cut over to them. -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of Beesley, Paul Sent: Friday, September 30, 2016 7:45 AM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [LINUX-390] Compatibility query Hello We have a customer running the following software: z/VM 5.4 SLES10 SP1 Websphere Message Broker 6.1 DB2 Connect (forget the version) We need to upgrade z/VM to a support version, probably 6.4 when it’s released in Q4. Question is, will SLES10 SP1 still run OK with that release of z/VM? If not I guess we’ll need to take the plunge and upgrade to SLES12. Next question would be, if we upgrade to SLES12, is WMB 6.1 still going to run OK? Anyone running this combination successfully with z/VM 6.x?
