Re: Current Red Hat version available
I have a couple customers successfully running MQ 6 with RHEL4. MQ is one of those middleware applications that run very nicely on z/Series Linux. regards Phil Tully Chaplin, James wrote: Can anyone advise us the current version of Red Hat for the z platform that is GA to the public.

Re: Current Red Hat version available
We are using RHEL 4 (of some sort) on z/OS. I am only peripherally involved with it. I believe that Sam here (that is doing a lot of that work) has found that MQ V6 has some problems (maybe in our environment). If you wish, I can put you in touch with him for some more detailed data.

Re: Current Red Hat version available
I can't speak to experiences with MQ 6.0, but the latest versions of RHEL are 4.5 and 5.0. Both have post-GA kernels available; RHEL 4.5 is based on kernel 2.6.9, and RHEL 5.0 is based on kernel 2.6.18. If it'll help, I can send you a list of bug fixes offline, which may help decide whether to rollout the next versions (4.6 and/or 5.1). -Brad On Tue, 2007-07-17 at 16:55 -0400, Chaplin, James wrote: Can anyone advise us the current version of Red Hat for the z platform that is GA to the public.
