  • 1.  GPFS unsupported in AIX 6.1?

    Hi,

    In GPFS page, IBM says that the latest supported AIX version is AIX 5.3. Dose it mean that AIX 6.1 will not work correctly with GPFS? or there is no technical support for it yet?

    Thanks

    Currently gpfs is not supported in 6.1. It should be supported in 6 to 8 months as products such as gpfs ( or any higher end functions) are not supported right away in a new OS release.

    Just so folks are clear: GPFS 3.1 may run on AIX 6.1, but it's not supported. Only GPFS Version 3.2 is supported on AIX 6.1. You take your chances running in an unsupported configuration.
