¹ V5R4M5 of the Licensed Internal Code is required on the indicated models. Other models which support the release can also use V5R4M5 LIC instead of V5R4M0 LIC. However, for such models, using V5R4M5 LIC does not provide any functional advantage.

² Release 6.1.1 of the Licensed Internal Code is required.

³ For IBM i 7.1 on POWER9 machines, refer to IBM i 7.1 on selected Power S922 and E980 servers.
