Not true.
z/OS 1.1 to 1.5 can run in 31-bit mode, so it can run on *some* 9672 machines. "Some" means G6, G5 and Multiprise3000 models. I'm not sure about older generations, my vaguely recollection tells me NO.
G6 machines are nn7, i.e. ZY7, X47
G5 machines are nn6, i.e. RA6, RC6, R36, R46

R45 is G4 machine. AFAIR it cannot run any z/OS as well as OS/390 2.10.

Thomas/Paolo,

This is very strange. We've been told by IBM that inorder run anything higher than OS/390 2.10, we had to go to a z box. We're currently running OS/390 2.6 on a 9672 R83.

Sorry,

I should have said you can't go higher than OS/390 V2R10 on a 9672-R45 (G4) box.

Hello Dude,
we are running a 9672-R46 in our DR Site.
It's running fine with z/OS 1.4.
But we have to think about a new box,
becourse we want to migrate to z/OS 1.7 next year.

Regards,
Paolo Pirillo
