Hi!
When UV was an Ardent product they published a matrix that listed the
supported Unix flavors (and levels) and what versions of UV and SB+
that were compatible with them. I can no longer find this matrix.

Our AIX server is currently at:
> oslevel -s
5300-05-00

AT UV TCL:
>ED VOC RELLEVEL

I'd like to take advantage of IBM's Electric Service Agent.
https://www-304.ibm.com/support/electronic/resources/2008_esvs-brochure_061708_v6_final_hr.pdf
, and http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/eserver/v1r2/topic/eicbd/eicbd_aix.pdf

but I need to be at AIX 5.3 TL6, so I'm one TL behind the minimum.

http://www-933.ibm.com/eserver/support/fixes/fixcentral/pfixpacks/53
says the latest TL for AIX 5.3 is now TL11. So if I'm going to
upgrade, I'd rather be at TL11.

Fo rmany reasons, I'd rather leave UV and SB+ at their current levels,
if possible. So, does anyone know if AIX 5.3 ML11 is compatible with
our existing UV and SB+ versions and/or is AIX 5.3 TL11 stable for
production?

Thanks!
Ken

You can still find the matrix at
https://u2tc.rocketsoftware.com/matrix.asp

Note; Rocket purchased UV from IBM last year

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the link.
Is it accurate to say if a version of AIX (i.e.; 5.3) is listed for a
given UV version, that it is fully compatible with *all* AIX TL levels
released by IBM within that AIX version?
If not, is there another matrix that lists these additional
compatibility details?

Sorry, don't know; don't use or know much about AIX.

Is there anyone out there that is running this version of UV/SB+ under
AIX 5.3 TL11 successfully?
Thanks!
