I'm also a bit nervous and curoius at the same time about discontinued functions, namely: Online system state restores - You can no longer restore the system state on a system that is online. Instead, use the Automated System Recovery (ASR) based recovery method to restore the system state in offline Windows Preinstallation Environment (PE) mode. and The following operating systems are no longer supported by the backup-archive client: Linux on Power Systems™ (big endian). You can still use the IBM Spectrum Protect API on Linux on Power Systems (big endian).
What is the idea behind "to be competive with x86 platform and get compativility certification for SAP HANA with Linux on Power platform (Big Endian)" (ref. https://blogs.saphana.com/2015/08/21/announcing-general-availability-of-sap-hana-on-ibm-power-systems/ ) and then 1.5 year later drop support of BAclient for OS"? We deployed 10+ big SAP HANA on Power8 instances last year, and now we will be getting "not supported" for new releases? M.
