Verifying the controller software

Verify the minimum software support that is required for your specific controller.

Support for the controller is contained in the Licensed Internal Code of IBM® i.

Each controller requires a supported release of IBM i. Verify other possible code prerequisites that are described in the following table and at IBM Prerequisite.

Attention: Ensure that the adapters have the latest adapter microcode PTFs as part of the initial installation.

Table 1. CCIN and version and release data
CCIN (Custom card identification number)	Minimum required IBM i version and release
572A	IBM i V5R4M5 or later¹
572C	IBM i V5R4M5 or later
572F and 575C	IBM i V5R4M5 or later¹
574E	IBM i 6.1.1 or later¹
57B3	IBM i 6.1 or later¹
57B7	IBM i V5R4M5 or later
57B8	IBM i V5R4M5 or later
Refer to the PCI adapter information by feature type for the minimum IBM i level requirements.

It might become necessary to install software updates so that you have the latest available level of adapter software support. Updates to the adapter software support are packaged, distributed, and installed through the same mechanisms that are used for other portions of the IBM i Licensed Internal Code. The standard IBM i technical support procedures can be used to determine the latest available level of adapter software support.
