• curprev 08:4008:40, 15 July 2022‎ Guy Harris talk contribs‎ 49,563 bytes −599‎ The rename from "i5/OS" to "IBM i" wasn't because it wouldn't run on the old POWER5-based machines, because it *did* run on those machines; it was because it now ran on *non*-POWER5-based machines (because they were POWER6-based). And, as I noted, "Each hardware processor has a finite range of operating system versions that are compatible with it." is hardly unique to OS/400; it's true of most OSes that live long enough to support multiple hardware generations, with or without renames. undo Tags: Undo Reverted

Newer versions of an OS often don't run on older machines supported by older versions of the OS, so that's nothing special. IBM calls it a rename here, https://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg247713.pdf, and they also note that "IBM i 6.1 runs on all POWER5(TM) systems", which predate IBM Power Systems and were originally "eServer i5" and then "System i", so there *were* OS releases that went under the "IBM i" name that ran on machines named "System i". undo Tags: Undo Reverted
