Bob,

I don't know where you would find a chart, but I do know that any of the
new Power 4 boxes require a minimum of 5.1. These are the p610 (actually
Power 3, but requires 5.1), p615, p630, p650, p670 and p690.

If they haven't already purchased the machine they could buy a p620, p640
or p660. These will run 4.3.3.

You'll need at least 4.3.3 for the 6xx series and maybe even 5.x

I have a special request from development to move from an older RISC box to
a new pSeries 650. The catch is the machine its on is running 4.2.1! Any
body have any experience or thoughts on supportability running 421 on
something like a 6M2 or a 6C1???

Thanks guys!

BTW Bill V. that looks nasty and I wish I could help! I hope you get that
rootvg issue resolution posted on your thread!!
