CoolSpools V7
The latest version of software is CoolSpools Version 7 which supersedes all previous software versions, including Slipstream, CoolTools and Communiqué as well as CoolSpools and CoolSpools PLUS.
CoolSpools Version 7 is compatible with all versions of OS/400 and IBM i from V6R1M0 up to V7R5M0 (IBM i 7.5).
If you are upgrading IBM i from V5R4M0 or earlier to V6R1M0 or later there is additional information about that process here.
If you are running an OS/400 release that is older than V6R1M0 then you cannot install CoolSpools Version 7, but CoolSpools Version 6 remains available and is compatible with IBM i versions back to V5R3M0.
