OS Versions

[Deskin, Bob]

If you are using PowerHouse 8.29 for PowerHouse Web 2.29, then you'll need
MPE/iX 6.0 with PowerPatch 2. Last I heard, HP had not released all the
patches for MPE/iX 6.5 that were included in PowerPatch 2 for 6.0. If anyone
hears otherwise, please let me know. There's a list of patches in the
PowerHouse Web Install and Release Notes that are based on MPE/iX 6.0 with
PowerPatch 1 and an additional set of patches. Those patches were included
in PowerPatch 2.

So the bottom line is if you're using PowerHouse Web, go with MPE/iX 6.0 and
PowerPatch 2. If you're not using PowerHouse Web, MPE/iX 6.5 should be fine.

HI Kevin:

PowerHouse 8.29 is built on MPE/iX 6.0 with patches. While we have not done
extensive testing on 6.5, HP does publish claims of upwards compatibility. 

Hope that helps.

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me whether Powerhouse for MPE/IX is supported on MPE/IX
version 6.5 and if so, what release should I be requesting.

(We have 8.29d here, but cannot install as we're currently on 5.5)

Thanks in advance,

Kevin
