AIX 5.1 lifecycle 1

[columb]

I'm trying to track down how much longer AIX 5.1 will be supported. The IBM site suggests it went out of date at the start of this month. Does anyone know the details? (I know - I'm being lazy as I could search the IBM site but someone might have a quick answer and save me hours of work.)

You are correct, AIX 5.1 went out of support on 4/1. Basically this means that if you have any problems IBM will only help you during normal business hours and that they are no longer producing patches for this OS version. Hope that helps.
