If Websphere introduces a 64-bit JVM which they do not support on 
z/Series, then why do they require sles9x? IBM?s statement is confusing?

So, you can run the 31bit version of WAS6.0.1 on your SLES 9 SP1 64 bit OR 
31bit guest.

Will IBM support this?

Re: WebSphere Clarification Please?






WebSphere 6.0.1 introduces a 64bit JVM for (AFAIK) the first time for
WebSphere. It also comes in the standard 31bit flavour. The 64bit JVM is
NOT supported on zSeries.

So, you can run the 31bit version of WAS6.0.1 on your SLES 9 SP1 64 bit OR
31bit guest.

We are currently running SLES9 SP1 31bit with WAS 6.0.1 31bit
