MPE/iX Release 7.0 PowerPatch 2
MPE/iX and the e3000 have been dutifully serving HP customers for nearly 30 years. On November 14th,
2001 HP announced the end of sales for the HP e3000 and MPE/iX. However, that date (November 1, 2003 for
end of sales) is still one year away. HP is pleased to announce the delivery of MPE/iX 7.0 PowerPatch 2 in
January, 2003.
HP realizes that customers are planning their migration away from the e3000 and MPE/iX. We understand
that it is very important for our customers to have additional time to develop and implement their migration
strategy. Thus, HP has improved the existing functionality and integrity of MPE/iX Release 7.0 with a
proactive patch-set found in MPE/iX 7.0 PowerPatch 2.

End of Support Dates for MPE/iX Release 6.0 and 6.5:
Support for the 6.0 release ended October 31, 2002 and MPE/iX Release 6.5 will be supported until December
31, 2004. After that time, customers who would like to continue running MPE/iX should plan to update to
either MPE/iX 7.0 or MPE/iX 7.5.
Customers who need additional time to plan and execute migrations, might find the 7.X products as a good
upgrade path. Those releases contain many performance and capacity enhancements for high-end systems
and bundled tools for using the HP e3000 with the Internet. Additionally, the 7.X releases will be supported
until December 31, 2006.
