IDS v7 on Itanic
Posted in 2006
Topics: General Discussion
According to the Availability spreadsheet on the informix.com website, IDS v7 is not available onthe Itanium chip. Can anyone confirm this? The website used to have a contact email address where someone knowledgable about Informix - an American lady living in Basingstoke, as I recall - would respond. That seems to have been replaced by the general IBM "Email Us" form, with its specialist idea of what email is, and from which I have never received a reply other than automated. Does anyone know what happened to the specialist Informix email - or am I just not looking hard enough? -- Neil Truby t:01932 724027 Director m:07798 811708 Ardenta Limited e:neil.truby@ardenta.com

And in fact Marco Greco has already told me the answer. But the fact is I shouldn't have to use my contacts. Just like the average Joe would have done I asked the question via the "Email Us" link on the Informix home page. Well, you'll be amazed to hear that, 24 hours later, I'm still waiting .....!
