Software End of Support Dates
With the high quality and reliability of the current OS/400 software releases, OS/400 users
may not recognize the importance of periodic upgrading to stay on a supported release.
Every release of OS/400 has a defined Program Services period, with the end date
announced with the initial announcement of the release. After the end of that Program
Services period, IBM no longer accepts problems for defect analysis.
