				| Hello, 
 We are planning to have MQ on HP Open VMS. Is IBM MQ still supporting & available for HP OpenVMS platform ?
 In IBM site I have seen notes that IBM have withdrawn and discontinuance support for MQ on HP OpenVMS. Is that correct ?
 
 Can you suggest something similar to Open VMS platform, where we can install MQ.

 How about any of the supported MQ platforms except z/OS? That's about the only OS that isn't similar to Open VMS, because it isn't similar to anything.

 iSeries and HP-Nonstop are also supported and quite different from OpenVMS
   
 I would use a Unix system (eg. AIX, Linux).

 Why not Windoze? That's quite different from other OS; nothing else has that level of complexity, obscurity and instability....

 And join the mainstream of the IT industry? It's got to be worth considering.
