IDS v7 on Itanic
Posted in 2006
Neil Truby asked whether IDS 7 is available on Itanium, since the vendor availability spreadsheet said no, and complained the Informix contact address had been replaced by an unanswered web form. Art S. Kagel confirmed it is available on HP-UX/Itanium. David suggested contacting Andy Legge; Neil said Marco Greco had already told him but objected to needing contacts.

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 That seems to have been replaced by the general IBM "Email Us" form, with its specialist idea of what email is, and from which I have never received a reply other than automated.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 .....!
