In a recent WarpCast posting (Aurora Client announcement:
http://www.os2ss.com/warpcast/wc4321.html) we said, in part, that:
There IS a service offering from IBM for installation and support
of an official Aurora Client to be officially announced within the
next couple of days.
This may have been incorrect or misleading. Here are the real facts,
straight from Steven King (the person named as the source in the
original message):
The posting was not reviewed by us and is a bit misleading. We do
offer customized installation services for Warp Server for
e-business where we can assist the customers in installing only
those components that they need. In some cases, the customers want
to kernel, LVM, and JFS .... but not much more. So we assist them
in the use of custom install (attended and unattended) to achieve
the desired end content. But ..... the pricing for the software
license is no different than the normal server. They may qualify
for discounts based on Advantage points but the tables are no
different than for the server solution. We do not have an Aurora
client pricing model.
Sorry for the confusion!!!!!
