XL Release 2.2, 3.0, and 3.1 Support Termination by Amy Blocher Commercial Systems Division MPE/iX Release 4.0, which is the first Software Platform Release to be introduced by Hewlett-Packard, provides an extremely stable release. Now tha it has been distributed to every support customer who is entitled to software updates, the support life for previous MPE/iX releases will soon terminate. The support life of a release is dependent on its distribution type. XL Release 2.2, which was distributed to the entire MPE/iX installed base, is supported until 12 months after MPE/iX Release 4.0 is distributed. This means that Hewlett-Packard support for XL Release 2.2 terminates on October 1, 1993. XL Release 3.0 and 3.1, which were not distributed to the entire MPE/iX installed base, is supported until 3 months after MPE/iX Release 4.0 is distributed. That is, XL Release 3.0 and 3.1 are no longer supported by Hewlett-Packard after January 1, 1993. If you are currently using any of these releases, you should update your systems to MPE/iX Release 4.0 before Hewlett-Packard discontinues support of these releases.
