Abstract
IBM® recognizes that customers might want to run Apache Geronimo on a broad set of configurations (for example: platforms, related products, or frameworks). To help customers understand the IBM support available for their planned configuration, IBM is introducing the “Recommended”, “Compatible” and “Not Supported” configuration classifications. These configuration classifications are intended to be used by customers who need to run on platforms that might not be tested with Apache Geronimo or who would like to use related products or frameworks that might have been tested by partners of IBM.

In the following table, the Support Policy outlines how IBM intends to work with customers who have purchased IBM Support for Apache Geronimo.
| Type of configuration | Description | Support policy |
| Recommended configuration | IBM recommends that customers use these operating system levels and processor architectures for production. | IBM provides support for this configuration for customers who have an IBM Support for Apache Geronimo support contract and are entitled to support, defect fixes or a reasonable alternative to address a reported problem with using Apache Geronimo on these platforms |
| Compatible configuration | IBM makes no formal claim of how well these platforms will actually perform and therefore is not able to include them as Recommended Configurations at this point in time. Customers might want to run Apache Geronimo on a platform that they are more familiar with but is not on the Recommended Configuration category. IBM expects that Apache Geronimo should function reliably on a given platform if:
| For customers that have an active IBM Support for Apache Geronimo support contract, IBM will work with the customer, IBM Business Partners and the Apache Geronimo community in a commercially reasonable manner to help solve the customer problem or determine that the problem source is outside of Apache Geronimo. Customers might be directed to our Business Partners for support on their specific offerings. IBM might, at our discretion, defer support to a more current release of Apache Geronimo or choose to reclassify the configuration as "Not Supported" |
| Not supported configuration | IBM is aware that these platforms are known not to work with Apache Geronimo. | Not supported. Customers should use a Recommended or Compatible Configuration to receive support under an active IBM Support for Apache Geronimo. |
