You can upgrade your clients at any time free of charge. Upgrading the server requires authorization from Tivoli/IBM. There is a one year upgrade protection that comes with the product when it was purchased. If it is outside of the 1st year then contact your IBM or Business Partner to discuss an upgrade.

I currently have a mixture of 3.7 and 4.2 clients, supported by an AIX 4.2 server. I'd like to upgrade to 5.1. Can I upgrade all of my clients and server to 5.1 without additional charges? The 4.2 clients and server are currently on support. The 3.7 clients are no longer supported, so I'm not certain what challenge that adds. Also I believe the Tivoli pricing model and modules have changed, so I'm not certain how that maps against what modules I have now (like DRM for example). I'm hoping some of the Tivoli partners out there can answer this question. Thanks for your help, Rod Hroblak ADP __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Y!
