    Hello,
    We have WebSphere Application Server for z/OS 8.5.5.17 under z/OS 2.4. The plan is to migrate z/OS to z/OS v3.1.
    We want to know if WAS 8.5.5.17 version/level will be supported under z/OS v3.1.?

    If not, what will be the minimum level for WAS 8.5.5?

    Our z/OS 3.1 testing was done with WAS 8.5.5.23, WAS 9.0.5.16, and Liberty 23.0.0.3.  I don't know any reason why earlier levels would not work at this point.

    Hello Jose,

    Not sure whether you've seen the Software Product Compatibility Reports. I use this when checking the pre-requisites for all our software.

    https://www.ibm.com/software/reports/compatibility/clarity/softwareReqsForProduct.html

    If you enter "Websphere Application Server for z/OS" in the product name and follow the prompts you can find all the details you need.
