64 bit windows server (xSeries) integration to iSeries

[Former Member]

Hi All!

Is anyone running a 64 bit Windows OS integrated with their iSeries? I am trying to figure out if this is supported..

Thanks!

Hi Diana,

64 bit windows is not supported with current version of i5/OS and current versions of windows servers

you can expect that next version of i5/OS will support 64 bit windows server 2008

but only iSCSI attached integrated servers/blades...

there is a lot of improvements in next i5/OS version in areas like high availability, "save while attached" etc. so opting for integrated servers is the right choice, no doubt

Hi Jörgen,

but with SAP on iSeries Win X64 is supported now already - just with internal drives obviouosly ....

Hi Diane,

for sure this is supported with all NW 7.0 technology components !

I would ONLY install Win 64 - if Win at all !

There is typically X64 (the AMD version) used and supported - Intel Itanium is not supported - but this will most likely no longer exist anyway ...

So, iSeries supports X64 as well
