Update on IBM i 7.2 End of Support
IBM i 7.2, introduced on April 28, 2014, reached its initial end of support on April 30, 2021. To assist organizations requiring additional time for system upgrades, IBM offered a Service Extension, providing continued support until April 30, 2024. As this extended support period concludes, it’s imperative for businesses still operating on IBM i 7.2 to plan and execute a transition to newer, supported versions. Upgrading ensures access to the latest features, security updates, and technical assistance, thereby maintaining operational efficiency and compliance. Proactive migration strategies are essential to mitigate risks associated with unsupported software environments.
