Other Configuration
Many configurations of HCL Products and other software exist that are not explicitly listed in “Supported Configurations” or “Unsupported Configurations”, but which can reasonably be expected to perform within the accepted bounds of reliability, function, and performance.
Configurations that fall into this category typically substitute a Dependent Product listed in the “Supported Configuration” for similar software. This may be a newer fix level of the Dependent Product or another software product that adheres to a supported specification. For example, this could be a newer WebSphere® Application Server (WAS) fix pack, an LDAP server that adheres to that standard or an external security manager that integrates via public APIs.
Please make sure to review HCL DX support statement for "Other Configurations" before making a decision to use the Dependent Products listed below.
