11i v3*

11i v2 Industry‟s most stable UNIX with


10+ years of support per major
release to avoid unnecessary
and costly application re-testing
11i v1

* 11i v3 is planned to be supported on "Poulson" and "Kittson"-based Integrity servers. Minimum end of sales for 11i v3 for Integrity is 31-Dec-2017 and minimum end of
support is 31-Dec-2022. End of sales for 11i v3 for HP 9000 servers is 31-Dec-2014 and end of support is 31-Dec-2020.

Extended support for HP-UX 11i v3
Announced September 2010

• The standard support lifecycle for most


operating systems (HP-UX, AIX, Oracle
Solaris, Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise
Linux) ranges between 7 – 10 years.
• The original end of factory support for HP-UX
11i v3 was slated for Dec 31, 2017.
• Based on customer demand, HP has decided
to extend the end of factory support for
HP-UX 11i v3 to Dec 31, 2020 for HP 9000
servers and to 2022 for HP Integrity servers -
3 and 5 additional years beyond what is 15 year
currently offered by the competition. lifecycle
• With a 15 year lifecycle, HP-UX 11i v3
provides maximum stability, continuity and
investment protection to our customers for the
next decade.
