    Thank you for opening this enhancement request with IBM. I have reviewed it with my team and we believe that your request to certify clustering with Windows 2019 would be valuable. We will accept this enhancement request and will look to add it to the roadmap moving forward.

Windows 2019 Certification for Connect Direct for Windows 6.1 Clusters [CDW on Clustered Environment]

Can you please certify and Support Connect Direct on Windows 2019 clusters? Windows 2012 is nearing end of support and 2016 will be in line shortly. If we can move to Windows 2019, it would be great.
