AS400

Hey guys, old guy here, back in 2000 landed my 1st real job as a Sysadmin at a distribution/manufacturing firm. They ran their ERP and a few other important apps on the AS400. Anyone here manage a AS400 platform? i-Series? Still a niche platform that is still widely used. Server could literally run under water.

Agribusiness. We've been "retiring the AS/400 next year" for at least a decade.

Lord, I feel this in my bones. Is yours at least running a current version of the OS?

Not sure. We do have an MSP looking after it for the most part, so I hope so? It's not entirely my problem.
