Procedure review, controls evidence and the documentation auditors ask for — maintained continuously, not scrambled at audit time.
24/7 Expert Support
Engineers who know this release monitor, manage and fix issues around the clock — break/fix to managed operations.
IBM MQ 9.2 LTS Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the IBM MQ 9.2 LTS still supported?
Yes. The IBM MQ 9.2 LTS is currently supported by IBM, and third-party support is available as an alternative — issue management, vulnerability remediation, and compliance help independent of the vendor contract.
When is the IBM MQ 9.2 LTS end of service life (EOSL) date?
IBM lists the end of service life for the IBM MQ 9.2 LTS as Sep 30, 2029.
Can I keep using the IBM MQ 9.2 LTS after its EOSL date?
Yes. EOSL means IBM stops issuing patches and support — the software itself keeps running. Third-party support covers it from there: issue management, security vulnerability remediation, and the compliance documentation auditors ask for, for as long as you choose to run it.
How much does third-party support for the IBM MQ 9.2 LTS cost?
Typically 40-70% below the OEM maintenance renewal price. Exact pricing depends on quantity, service level and location — request a quote and we respond within 24 hours.
