Actually you can go to 1.9. Support is N+3, not N+2. However JES2 might be the problem, as there were major changes that required many companies to rewrite their exits when they upgraded to 1.7 or higher.

If you're farther than N+2, you can't upgrade more than 2 releases and still be supported. If you are currently at 1.6, you can't go furthur than 1.8 and remain supported by IBM. Chances are you won't having any problems going from 1.6 to 1.9, but support is a big issue. > >Eric > >---- Ted MacNEIL <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Unless you have major issues with software running on the latest release, I would always recommend the most current available, when upgrading. >> >> And, this would include all software, not just the OS. >> >-- >Eric Bielefeld ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
