Are there any owners of AW51 D & E boxes out there running 6.x? We recently reviewed the Inv. Lifecycle report and found that the AW51 D & E boxes are no longer available from jan 2007 on. Invensys advises to change to G boxes and upgrade to version 7.0. I hate to imagine what would happen if our host box (E) would fail (motherboard or sun Proccessor) and we can't get a replacement within a couple of days.... I probably can't convince management to replace and upgrade a perfectly good system, only because of the end of lifetime issue....So we'll probably try to obtain a spare E box. I would be interested in knowing the strategies on this of the other I/A users. Thanks & Rgds, Dirk Pauwels - DCS coordinator Engineering dept.
