Power 9 End of Support Dates by Model

A model-first Power 9 lifecycle table for AS/400 and IBM i hardware planning.

Start lifecycle planning with the machine type, not the marketing label. An S914 can mean 9009-41A or 9009-41G, and those distinctions matter for support, parts, I/O, and migration planning.

Known Power 9 lifecycle signals

Model	Machine Type	IBM Lifecycle Signal	Owner Action
S914	9009-41A	IBM lists end of support services as 31-Jan-2026.	Plan replacement, extension, or third-party maintenance now.
S922	9009-22A	IBM lists end of support services as 31-Jan-2026.	Map IBM i release and partition constraints before extending.
S924	9009-42A	IBM lists end of support services as 31-Jan-2026.	Compare extension cost against S1124 or S1024 replacement.
S914/S922/S924 G	9009-41G / 22G / 42G	Withdrawn from marketing per reseller tracking and IBM announcements; verify support by serial.	Confirm current service entitlement and parts path.
E950/E980	9040-MR9 / 9080-M9S	Enterprise lifecycle requires exact IBM product lookup.	Do not infer from scale-out A-model dates.
