We are running IBM Integration Bus v10 on AIX 7.1.
And we were preparing to move to ACE.
But in the system requirements only AIX 7.2 is mentioned.

Does that mean that ACE is not available on AIX 7.1 at all?
My understanding is that AIX 7.1 is supported until at least Q2 2023.
Our assumption was that ACE would be available for AIX 7.1 as well.

Can someone give some formal statement on ACE support on AIX in general and AIX 7.1 in particular?
This would help us to feed our internal discussion on how to proceed.
Thanks.

As far as I can see in the Detailed System Requirements for ACE 12, AIX 7.2 TL3 is the minimum OS level required to run the product on AIX:
