Infor Announces End of support for Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and IBM Operating Systems
“This announcement is applicable only to on-premise software deployments. It does not apply to products deployed in the cloud.
Effective May 31, 2017, (previously announced as May 31, 2016) Infor will no longer provide corrections for issues to Infor Lawson application and technology products, including Infor Lawson System Foundation (LSF) releases 9.0.1.X and 10.0.X.0 and subsequent versions, which are caused by running the applications on these server operating systems:
- Microsoft® Windows® Server 2008 SP2
- Microsoft® Windows® Server 2008 R2
- IBM® i v6R1
Effective May 31, 2017, (previously announced as May 31, 2016) Infor will no longer provide corrections for issues to Landmark Technology Runtime 10.X.X.0 release and subsequent versions which are caused by running the applications on these server operating systems:
- Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2
- Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2 and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 reached Microsoft’s mainstream support end date in January 2015 as communicated on the Microsoft Support Lifecycle site.
IBM i v6R1 reached IBM’s end of support date in September 2015 as communicated on the IBM Support Lifecycle site.
After May 31, 2017, Infor LSF and Infor Landmark Technology Runtime customers running on the Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2/R2 server operating systems or the IBM i v6R1 server operating system run the risk of encountering issues in their environments that will require an update to a then-currently supported server operating system.
To help mitigate that risk, Infor strongly recommends that Infor LSF and Infor Landmark Technology Runtime customers update their server operating systems to a currently supported version prior to May 31, 2017, as published in the Infor Lawson Compatibility Matrix document.”
