Am I the only one confused by today's HW withdrawal announcement letter
919-056? We had been advised that the z13 series would be withdrawn
from marketing mid-year but the title and the body of this announcement
appear to have quite a disconnect (like there's no mention of the z13).
And unless I'm mistaken that's pretty much every z14 model being
withdrawn - with no announced replacement. Anyone know more? Thanks.
Title of letter:
Hardware withdrawal: IBM z13, IBM z13s, IBM z14, IBM LinuxONE
Rockhopper, IBM LinuxONE Rockhopper II, IBM LinuxONE Emperor, and IBM
LinuxONE Emperor II selected feature codes
Body of letter:
Effective April 2, 2019, IBM® will withdraw from marketing the select
features listed in the Withdrawn products section.
