<h1 class="topictitle1">Logical partition release support</h1>
<div><p>Systems with logical partitions have the capability to support
more than one version of OS/400<sup>®</sup> or i5/OS™.</p>
<p>The logical partition strategy is to support up to four different releases
on the same system, provided that all releases are supported on the server
model. The releases that you can install on a particular server depend upon
which releases are supported on the server model and upon which release you
choose to install on the primary partition (which will be denoted in this
article as the reference release, or P).</p>
<p>If the primary partition is running Version 4 Release 5 (V4R5) or earlier,
you can install and run the following releases on the secondary partitions,
provided that each release is supported by the server model:</p>
<ul><li>The release before the release on the primary partition (P - 1) </li>
<li>The release on the primary partition (P) </li>
<li>The release after the release on the primary partition (P + 1)</li>
</ul>
<p>The only exception to this rule is when the primary partition of 6xx, 7xx,
or Sx0 servers runs V4R4. In this case, you can install V5R1 on a secondary
partition of those servers.</p>
<p>For example, if V4R5 is running on the primary partition of a server, you
can install V4R4, V4R5, or V5R1 on the secondary partitions, provided that
the server supports those releases.</p>
<p>If the primary partition is running V5R1 or later, you can install and
run the following releases on the secondary partitions, provided that each
release is supported by the server model: </p>
<ul><li>The release before the release on the primary partition (P - 1)</li>
<li>The release on the primary partition (P)</li>
<li>The release after the release on the primary partition (P + 1)</li>
<li>The second release after the release on the primary partition (P + 2)</li>
</ul>
<p>For example, if V5R1 is running on the primary partition of a server, you
can install V4R5, V5R1, V5R2, or V5R3 on the secondary partitions, provided
that the server supports those releases. </p>
<p>The logical partition functionality that will be supported on your server
depends upon the server model and upon the releases of OS/400 and i5/OS that you have installed on the server.
For more information on the logical partition functionality supported on each
server model, see Evaluate the hardware limitations of the iSeries(TM) servers.
For more information on the logical partition functionality supported by each
release, see OS/400 and i5/OS logical
partition function by release.</p>

models only if the server has two or more processors.</p>
