Important announcement for INFO 5 clients using OS/400 V4R5 or lower

continued from What's new at Karmak?
<BACK


In order to ensure optimum functionality of the INFO 5 software, it is necessary for Karmak to maintain our development systems on supported versions of OS/400. Therefore, INFO 5 Release 7.2 has been developed to run under OS/400 release V5R1 and later versions. Certain features of INFO 5 Release 7.2 are incompatible with earlier versions of OS/400. 

If you are using OS/400 V4R5 or lower, and if you have not already done so, Karmak encourages you to make plans for upgrading to the latest version of OS/400 that your AS/400 will support. Karmak's Sales and Systems Support departments can assist you with determining which OS/400 version is right for your system. Upgrading your OS/400 version now will allow you to take advantage of the many new enhancements contained in INFO 5 Release 7.2 when it becomes available in the near future. 

It is important that you begin the discovery process now so Karmak can assist you in determining what is required and what issues you may face to get your OS to current levels. Karmak has made every effort to compile the latest IBM pre-upgrade and upgrade-process information to help you plan and perform your upgrade in the best possible way. With this information, several Karmak customers have performed OS upgrades with minimal impact, and tips from their experience have been incorporated into the information we have compiled. If after considering this information and discussing the matter with a Karmak Systems Support Specialist, you do not wish to perform the upgrade yourself, Karmak will offer a quote to do the upgrade for you in the most cost-effective way possible. 

Keeping pace with changes in today's climate of rapidly advancing technologies is always a challenge. However, it is our goal to help keep you informed and assist you in doing so at every opportunity. If you have any questions about your OS/400 operating system upgrade, please contact our INFO 5 Systems Support Group at or 800-865-8991.
