A z/OS System Programmer's Guide to Migrating to a New IBM System z9 EC or z9 BCServer The latest generation of IBM System z servers, the IBM System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC, formerly the
IBM System z9 109 (z9-109)) and the IBM System z9 Business Class (z9 BC), are designed to provide anadvanced combination of reliability, availability, security, scalability, and virtualization features. The good news
is all supported z/OS releases can run on a z9 EC or z9 BC server (all supported z/OS.e releases can run on a
z9 BC server). Similarly, all supported z/OS and z/OS.e releases can participate in a sysplex that has a CF oroperating system image on a z9 server. The even better news is that most customers are well positioned to use
the new server.
Come hear about how to upgrade to a IBM System z9 server! This informative session will describe the
software required to run on a new server (including cryptographic software), compatibility code required on
other systems that share resources with systems running on the new server, and migration actions associatedwith the new software. This session will be of interest to systems programmers and their managers who will
upgrade to a z9 server.

z9 EC OverviewFor over four decades, the IBM mainframe has been a leader in data and transaction serving. The IBM Systemz9 109 (z9-109) (announced July 2005), provided a strong combination of mainframe characteristics, plus new
functions designed around scalability, availability, security, and virtualization. With the announcement in May
of 2006, the z9-109 became known as the IBM System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC).
With a modular book design, the z9 EC Model S54 is designed to provide up to 95% more total system capacity
than the z990 Model D32, and has up to double the available memory. The Modified Indirect Data AddressWord (MIDAW) facility is designed to improve FICON performance. The number of FICON Express2 openexchanges (concurrent I/O operations) that may be active simultaneously has been increased from 32 to 64
per channel.
The z9 is focused on providing higher availability and reducing planned and unplanned outages -- which, when
properly configured, may be accomplished with improved nondisruptive replace, repair, and upgrade functionsfor memory, books, and I/O as well as extending nondisruptive capability to download Licensed Internal Code
updates.
Integrated clear key encryption security-rich features on the z9 include support for Advanced Encryption
Standard, Secure Hash Algorithm-256, and integrated Pseudo Random Number Generation. Performing these
functions in hardware is designed to contribute to improved performance.Innovations on the z9 can help to ensure you have a security-rich platform, can help maximize your resourcesand their utilization, and can help provide you the ability to integrate applications and data across the
infrastructure. The z9 is designed to be a flagship component of your heterogeneous environment.
The z9 continues the evolution of the mainframe, building upon the structure introduced on z990 in support of
z/Architecture, reliability, availability, scalability, and clustering. The z9 expands upon a key attribute of theplatform - availability - to help ensure you have a resilient infrastructure designed to satisfy the requirements

of On Demand Business. With the increased performance and total system capacity possible for the z9, you
have an opportunity to continue to consolidate diverse applications on a single platform.
The z9 EC is designed to provide:
• Five New Hardware Models - offering 1 to 54 configurable PUs. The first four models (S08, S18, S28and S38) have 12 PUs per book. The enhanced capacity Model S54, our largest mainframe server, offers 16
PUs in each of its four books. • Faster Uni processor - a 35% increase in capacity performance over the z990 Model 2084-301, and the
overall server capacity will be 95% more on the S54 than the z990 Model 2084-332.
• Up to 54 CPs - The Model S54 is an enhanced capacity model. You can customize the machine to be a 1 to54-way. On the standard models, the first book has 10 configurable PUs, with 12 PUs each in books 2, 3
and 4. The S54 has 12 configurable PUs in the first per book, and 14 configurable ones in each remaining
book. Like the S38, the S54 can be ordered with a minimum of 16 GB of memory up to a maximum of 512 GB.
• Up to 512 GB Memory - Memory has been doubled from what was offered on the z990 processor - for aserver maximum capacity up to 512 GB with a maximum of 128 GB per book.
• CBU for IFL, ICF and zAAP - The z9 will be able to activate most PU types as part of CBU upgrades:
IFLs, zAAPs, ICFs and CPs (zIIPs added with GA2). This is in contrast to the z890 and z990 servers that
were, and continue to be, only able to activate CPs as CBU upgrades. • Separate PU Pool Management - New on the z9, all zAAP, zIIP, ICF and IFL processors will be managed
as individual separate and distinct processor types/pools by PR/SM. On the z990 all the specialty engines
were contained in just one ‘specialty pool’.
• Redundant I/O Interconnect - Redundant I/O interconnect will help maintain critical connections to
devices during enhanced book availability as it provides connectivity to the server I/O resources using a
second path from a different book.
• Enhanced Driver Maintenance - One of the greatest contributors to downtime during planned outages is
Licensed Internal Code (LIC) updates performed in support of new features and functions. When properlyconfigured, the z9 is designed to support activating select new LIC level concurrently. Concurrent
activation is only supported at specific sync points.
• Enhanced Book Availability - The z9 is designed to allow a single book, in a multibook server, to beconcurrently removed from the server and reinstalled during an upgrade or repair action.
• Dynamic Oscillator Switchover - The z9 has two oscillator cards, a primary and a backup. In the event ofa failure of the primary oscillator card, the backup is designed to detect the failure, switch over, and
provide the clock signal to the server transparently. Previously, in the event of a failure of the activeoscillator, a server outage would occur, the subsequent Power On Reset would select the backup, and the
server would resume operation. Dynamic oscillator switchover is exclusive to the z9.
• Server Time Protocol – (available since January 31, 2007) Is a new time synchronization feature, Server
Time Protocol (STP), which is designed to provide the capability for multiple System z9 and zSeries servers
to maintain time synchronization with each other. STP is planned to be the follow-on to the Sysplex Timer
(9037-002). The Sysplex Timer and STP are designed to allow events occurring in different System z9,
zSeries, and S/390 servers to be properly sequenced in time. Note: IBM intends to withdraw the SysplexTimer Model 2 (9037-002) from marketing in 2006. For more information, refer to HardwareAnnouncement 105-241, dated July 26, 2005, (IBM System z9 109).
STP is designed to:
• Allow clock synchronization for z9 EC, z9 BC, z990, and z890 servers and CFs without requiring the
Sysplex Timer
• Support a multisite timing network of up to 100 km (62 miles) over fiber optic cabling, thus allowing a
Parallel Sysplex to span these distances

• Potentially reduce the Cross-Site connectivity required for a multisite Parallel Sysplex
• Coexist with an ETR network
• Allow use of dial-out time services to set the time to an international time standard (such asCoordinated Universal Time (UTC)) and adjust to UTC on a periodic basis
• Allow setting of local time parameters, such as time zone and daylight savings time
•
Allow automatic updates of daylight savings timeSTP is available as a feature on z9, z990, and z890, and be supported by z/OS (and z/OS.e) V1.7 (PTFs arerequired to enable STP support).
• Faster 2.7GB STI and more of them - The z9 has 4 more STI (self timed interconnect) connections perbook as well as a faster bandwidth. (12 STIs x 2.0 Gigabytes per STI x 4 books = 96 versus 16 STIs x 2.7
GB per STI x 4 books = 172.8 ... 172.8/96 = 80%)
• MIDAW Facility - The Modified Indirect Data Address Word (MIDAW) facility is a new and separatefacility, offering an alternative for a channel program to be constructed. The new design can help to
improve performance for native FICON applications that use extended format datasets (including DB2 and
VSAM) by helping to improve channel utilization, reduce channel overhead, and improve I/O response times.
The MIDAW facility is supported on z/OS 1.6 and above.
•
Multiple Subchannel Sets (MSS) per LCSS – MSS provides a second set of subchannels for definingParallel Access Volume (PAV) aliases. This new function can help provide relief from the 64K device limit
by allowing PAV aliases to be defined without making device numbe3rs unavailable for defining additionaldevices. For some of our largest customers this is designed to provide an I/O constraint benefit.
• 63.75K Subchannels for Set-0 - addresses a maximum of 64K-1 subchannels in subchannel set 0 (zero).
Previously 1024 (1K) of these subchannels were reserved for system use. IBM is making 768 of these
subchannels available for customer use. This change increases the storage attachment capability of theSystem z9 - for example the IBM TotalStorage DS8000 Series can be defined to attach 63.75K unit
addresses - so with 63.75K in the host there is symmetry between the server and the storage subsystem.
• Up to 336 FICON Express2 Channels - Providing the capability to populate the 28 I/O slots in one I/O
cage allows the z9 to have a maximum of 336 FICON channels installed.
•
N_Port Virtualization N_Port ID Virtualization (NPIV) allows a single Fibre Channel Protocol (FCP) porton Linux on System z9 to appear as multiple, distinct ports providing separate port identification and
security zoning within the fabric for each operating system image as if each operating system image had its
own unique physical port. NPIV is similar to the Multiple Image Facility (MIF) available on ESCON and
FICON channels.
• IPv6 Support for HiperSockets - HiperSockets now supports Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) designed
by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to replace Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) to help
satisfy the demand for additional IP addresses. IPv6 provides more unique IP addresses by expanding theIP address space from 32 bits to 128 bits. IPv6 requires z/OS 1.6 and z/VM 5.2.
• OSA-Express2 1000BASE-T - With the additional memory available on OSA-Express2, the 1000BASE-T
Ethernet feature will be able to: Support large send (offloading TCP segmentation processing from host
TCP/IP stack to OSA-Express2), 640 TCP/IP stacks for improved virtualization by hosting of more imageson System z9 and potentially reducing the number of required OSA features, and support of concurrent
LIC update to minimize network traffic disruption.
• OSA-Express2 OSN (OSA for NCP) - The OSA-Express2 OSN (OSA for NCP) is designed to providesupport for the IBM Communication Controller for Linux (CCL) on System z V1.2.1. OSA for NCP will help
to eliminate dependencies on hardware such as the 3745/6. It helps to collapse SNA within the serverwhile exploiting and leveraging IP.

• Enhanced CPACF with AES, PRNG and SHA-256 – CP Assist or Cryptographic Functions (CPACF) has
been enhanced to include support of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for 128-bit keys, Secure
Hash Algorithm-256 (SHA-256), and Pseudo Random Number Generation (PRNG). PRNG is a standardfunction supported on the Crypto Express2 feature. CPACF, supporting clear key encryption, is standard on
every CP and IFL; however a no charge enablement feature #3863 is required.
•
Configurable Crypto Express2 – The Crypto Express2 feature has two PCI-X adapters, and each can bedefined as either a coprocessor or as an accelerator. The Crypto Express2 feature with both PCI-Xadapters defined as accelerators is designed to perform up to 6000 SSL handshakes per second. That is a
3X performance improvement compared to the z990 when using either a PCI Cryptographic Accelerator(PCICA) feature, with two PCI accelerators per feature, or the current Crypto Express2 feature, with two
PCI coprocessors per feature.

processing and support for legacy systems, the z9 EC’s solid foundation makes it an ideal server to help meetchanging business priorities. Realizing the requirement for more granular capacity settings within the z9 EC,
now offers you central processors with a larger variety of capacity choices that can help meet your businessrequirements. These processors will continue to have the ability to support all z9 EC features and functions.
The mainframe has evolved our use of specialty engines over time starting with the Internal Coupling Facility
(ICF). The latest specialty engine, announced in January of 2006, is the zIIP. The IBM zIIP is the latest
customer-inspired specialty engine for the IBM System z9 family. The zIIP, when combined with an enablingWeb deliverable for z/OS V1.6 and V1.7 and enabling PTFs for DB2 UDB for z/OS V8, is designed to help
improve resource utilization and lower the cost of eligible workloads, enhancing the role of the z9 EC as the
data hub of the enterprise.
The z9 EC now includes FICON Express4 for potential improved I/O capacity and performance with the next
generation of FICON/FCP. This new feature may offer increased channel aggregation and shorter backup
windows to help reduce the cost of storage operations and infrastructure. IBM has a broad range of disk, tape,and SAN products that are ready to support FICON Express4. With these enhanced capabilities, the z9 EC isintended to help increase the flexibility to configure a server to meet current needs, provide a powerful and
advanced data serving environment, and help drive down risks and business costs. The z9 EC is designed to
optimize your resources without sacrificing features or functions, both within the server and within the
enterprise.

Additionally, the z9 EC includes support for Remote Key Loading for ATMs and point of sale devices, and
implementation of ISO 16609 CBC Mode TDES MAC.
Remote Key Loading refers to the process of loading Data Encryption Standard (DES) keys to Automated
Teller Machines (ATMs) and Point of Sale (POS) devices from a central administrative site without the needfor personnel to visit each machine to manually load DES keys. These enhancements provide two important new
features: the ability to load initial keys to an ATM or a POS device from a remote location, and enhancedcapabilities for exchanging keys with non-CCA cryptographic systems.
Remote Loading of Initial ATM Keys: Typically, a new ATM has none of the financial institutions keysinstalled. Remote Key Loading refers to the process of loading Data Encryption Standard (DES) keys to
Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) from a central administrative site without the need for personnel to visit
each machine to manually load DES keys. This has been done by manually loading each of the two clear text keyparts individually and separately into ATMs. Manual entry of keys is one of the most error-prone and labor-
intensive activities that occur during an installation, making it expensive for the banks and financial institutions.
Remote Key Loading Benefits: • Provides a mechanism to load initial ATM keys without the need to send
technical staff to ATMs.
• Reduces downtime due to key entry errors.• Reduces service call and key management costs.
• Improves the ability to manage ATM conversions and upgrades.
Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF), together with Crypto Express2, support the basicmechanisms in Remote Key Loading. The implementation offers a secure bridge between the highly secure
Common Cryptographic Architecture (CCA) environment and the various formats and encryption schemesoffered by the ATM vendors. The following are new ICSF services are offered for Remote Key loading:
• Trusted Block Create (CSNDTBC) - This callable service is used to create a trusted block containing a
public key and some processing rules. The rules define the ways and formats in which keys are
generated and exported.
• Remote Key Export (CSNDRKX) - This callable service uses the trusted block to generate or export
DES keys for local use and for distribution to an ATM or other remote device.
Refer to Application Programmers Guide, SA22-7522, for additional details.
Improved Key Exchange With Non-CCA Cryptographic Systems: IBM Common Cryptographic Architecture
(CCA) employs Control Vectors to control usage of cryptographic keys. Non-CCA systems use other mechanisms,or may use keys that have no associated control information. This enhancement provides the ability to
exchange keys between CCA systems, and systems that do not use Control Vectors. Additionally, it allows the
CCA system owner to define permitted types of key import and export which can help to prevent uncontrolled
key exchange that can open the system to an increased threat of attack.
ISO 16609 CBC Mode T-DES Enhancement: ISO 16609 CBC Mode T-DES MAC supports the requirements
for Message Authentication, using symmetric techniques. ICSF will use the following callable services to accessthe ISO 16609 CBC Mode T-DES MAC enhancement in the Cryptographic coprocessor:
• MAC Generate (CSNBMGN)
• MAC Verify (CSNVMVR)
• Digital Signature Verify (CSNDDSV)ISO 16609 CBC mode T-DES MAC is accessible through ICSF function calls made in the Cryptographic Adapter
Segment 3 Common Cryptographic Architecture (CCA) code.

z9 BC OverviewThe IBM System z9 Business Class (z9 BC) continues the generation of IBM z9 servers introduced with theIBM System z9 EC (z9 EC) that are designed to help optimize your On Demand Business. This new generation
of IBM mainframes provides an advanced combination of reliability, availability, security, scalability, andvirtualization features, together with the ability to reallocate processing power. The z9 BC is designed to
match changing business priorities on demand.
The z9 BC is designed specifically as a midrange mainframe and offers extensive growth options and excellent
price/performance for those customers requiring a lower-capacity entry point and more granular growthoptions than offered with the z9 EC.
The IBM z9 BC is designed to help enable your businesses to be resilient in the unpredictable on demand world.
With two models and a wide range of capacity settings, the newest member of the IBM System z9 family
delivers significantly improved granularity and enriched functions over its predecessor, the IBM eServerzSeries z890. The Model S07 can provide up to twice the memory, and more specialty engines as compared with
the z890. Also introduced is the new System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIP).
The z9 BC offers four new FICON Express4 features that support auto-negotiated speeds of 1, 2, and 4 Gbps.
One of the FICON Express4 features is a 2-port card that provides attractive entry pricing to FICON
technology adoption and is offered exclusively on the z9 BC.
All FICON Express4 and FICON Express2 features support the Modified Indirect Data Address Word
(MIDAW) facility. MIDAW is a new system architecture with software exploitation that is designed to help
improve channel utilization and throughput, and potentially reduce I/O response times. The number of FICON
Express4 and FICON Express2 concurrent I/O operations that may be active simultaneously has beenincreased from 32 to 64 per channel as compared to the z890.
IBM has a broad range of disk, tape, and SAN products that are ready to support FICON Express4. IBM

Server Time Protocol (STP)
Provides capability for multiple servers to maintain time synchronization with each other andform a Coordinated Timing Network (CTN) synchronization with each other and form aCoordinated Timing Network (CTN)
► CTN: a collection of servers that are time synchronized to a time value called Coordinated Server Time (CST)
Server-wide facility implemented in IBM System z9 EC, z9 BC, IBM eServer zSeries 990 and890 (z990, z890) Licensed Internal Code (LIC)
► Single view of “time” to PR/SM
► PR/SM can virtualize this view of time to the individual partitions (LPARs)
► STP not available on z900, z800 or 9672 Gx servers
Message-based time synchronization protocol
► Similar to Network Time Protocol (NTP) industry standard
● NOT standard NTP
Does not require dedicated Timer links
► Timekeeping information transmitted over Coupling Links
● ISC-3 links (Peer mode), ICB-3 and ICB-4 links
► Allows Parallel Sysplex distances to extend beyond the current 40 km limit
● Limits set by coupling protocol and links
Allows concurrent migration from an ETR network with proper planning
Allows coexistence with ETR network
Server Time Protocol (STP)The Server Time Protocol feature is designed to provide the capability for multiple servers and CouplingFacilities to maintain time synchronization with each other, without requiring a Sysplex Timer. The servers and
Coupling Facilities that are capable of supporting Server Time Protocol are:
• IBM System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC)
• IBM System z9 Business Class (z9 BC)
• IBM eServer zSeries 990
•
IBM eServer zSeries 890Server Time Protocol is a server-wide facility that is implemented in the Licensed Internal Code (LIC) of z9
EC, z9 BC, z990, z890, and CFs and presents a single view of time to Processor Resource/Systems Manager
(PR/SM). STP uses a message-based protocol in which timekeeping information is passed over externallydefined Coupling Links - InterSystem Channel-3 (ISC-3) links configured in peer mode, Integrated Cluster Bus-
3 (ICB-3) links, and Integrated Cluster Bus-4 (ICB-4) links. These can be the same links that already are being
used in a Parallel Sysplex for Coupling Facility (CF) message communication.
By using the same links to exchange timekeeping information and Coupling Facility messages in a ParallelSysplex, STP can scale with distance. Servers exchanging messages over short distance links such as ICB-3 and
ICB-4 are designed to meet more stringent synchronization requirements than servers exchanging messages
over long distance links such as ISC-3 (distances up to 100 km), where the synchronization requirements areless stringent. This is an enhancement over the current Sysplex Timer implementation, which does not scalewith distance.
The STP design has introduced a new concept called Coordinated Timing Network (CTN). A Coordinated Timing
Network (CTN) is a collection of servers and Coupling Facilities that are time synchronized to a time value
called Coordinated Server Time.
STP supports the following functions:

• Initialize the time manually or by dialing out to a time service, so that Coordinated Server Time can be
set to within 100 milliseconds of an international time standard such as Coordinated Universal Time
(UTC).
• Schedule periodic dial-outs to a time service so that Coordinated Server Time may be gradually steered
to an international time standard.
•
Initialize Time Zone offset, Daylight Saving Time (DST) offset, Leap seconds offset.• Schedule changes to offsets listed above. STP can automatically schedule Daylight Saving Time, based
on the selected Time Zone, a capability that did not exist on the Sysplex Timer.
• Adjust Coordinated Server Time by up to +/- 60 seconds. This improves upon the Sysplex Timer'scapability of adjusting time by up to +/- 4.999 seconds.
STP Enhancements
The Server Timer Protocol feature is designed to simplify hardware configurations by:
• Allowing clock synchronization for z9 EC, z9 BC, z990, and z890 servers and Coupling Facilities withoutrequiring the Sysplex Timer and dedicated timer links. This helps reduce the need for separate
hardware that needs to be ordered and maintained.
• Supporting a multisite timing network of up to 100 km (62 miles) over fiber optic cabling, thus allowing a
sysplex to span these distances. This overcomes the limitations of the Sysplex Timer to Sysplex Timerlinks being supported only up to 40 km. STP is designed to eliminate the need for a third site to locate
the second Sysplex Timer for installations where the multisite sysplex spans a distance greater than
40 km but less than 100 km (the current limit for Sysplex Timer to server connection).
• Potentially reducing the cross-site connectivity required for a multisite Parallel Sysplex. Dedicated
links are no longer required to transport timing information since STP and Coupling Facility messages
may be transmitted over the same links.Additional value from Server Time Protocol may be obtained by:
• Eliminating infrastructure requirements (space, power, etc) needed to support Sysplex Timers
• Eliminating Sysplex Timer maintenance costs
• Eliminating fiber optic infrastructure requirements for:
o Patch/trunk cableso Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexer (DWDM) ports
o Dark fiber between sites for External Time Reference (ETR) and Control Link Oscillator (CLO)links (links between Sysplex Timers)
Concurrent Migration and Coexistence
STP introduces the concept of a Coordinated Timing Network (CTN), to meet two key goals of System z
customers:
• Concurrent migration from an existing External Time Reference (ETR) network to a timing networkusing STP.
• Capability of servers that cannot support STP to be synchronized in the same network as servers that
support STP (z9 EC, z9 BC, z990, z890)A CTN can be configured in two ways:
• Mixed CTN (ETR and STP) which requires a Sysplex Timer. The Sysplex Timer provides the
timekeeping information in a Mixed CTN.
A Mixed CTN allows you to meet the above requirements of concurrent migration and coexistence. Thecoexistence allows for a sysplex configuration where members of the sysplex may reside on a z800 or z900
server.
• STP-only CTN which does not require a Sysplex Timer.

z9 Support by z/OS Release
z9 capabilities differ depending on z/OS and z/OS.e release
► Support provided on z/OS V1.4 w/z990 Compatibility Support
feature (and higher) or z/OS.e w/z990 Coexistence Support
► NO SUPPORT provided for z/OS or z/OS.e V1.4 Base
Software requirements differ depending on z/OS release and
functions exploited
► Support provided via a combination of features (V1.4 only), web
deliverables, and PTFs
► Required PTFs documented in hardware and software PSP
Buckets depending on what server and z/OS release you are
coming from
z9 EC and z9 BC Support by z/OS (and z/OS.e) ReleaseThe software support for the z9 servers, similar to the zSeries z990 and z890, differs by z/OS release level,is provided by a combination of FMIDs and PTFs. All of the required software for migrating from a z990 or
z890 to a System z9 server is delivered by PTFs. The specific PTFs that need to be installed will depend onthe z/OS release. In addition, exploitation of certain functions, specifically some cryptographic functions and
the new System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIP) support, requires the installation of FMIDs.
These FMIDs are downloadable Web Deliverables. These Web deliverables are unpriced and can be
downloaded at: http://www.ibm.com/eserver/zseries/zos/downloads. The following z/OS and z/OS.e releases are supported on the z9:
• z/OS V1.4 with the z/OS V1.4 z990 Compatibility Support Feature (no longer orderable), or z/OS V1.4 with
the z/OS V1.4 z990 Exploitation Support Feature (orderable until December 11, 2006, unpriced, optionalfeature)
• z/OS.e V1.4 with the z/OS.e V1R4 z990 Coexistence feature (no longer orderable), or z/OS.e V1.4 with the
z/OS.e V1R4 z990 Coexistence Update feature (orderable until December 11, 2006, unpriced, optional
feature)
• z/OS or z/OS.e V1.5 or higher
Notes:
1. z/OS.e cannot run on a z9 EC, but does run on a z9 BC server.
2. The functional capabilities increase with z/OS releases. That is, z/OS V1.6 has more capabilities thanz/OS V1.4, and z/OS V1.8 exploits more functions than z/OS 1.6. For a list of z/OS and z/OS.e releases
and the functions that are supported for those releases, review the tables on charts 84 and 85 on page 73.
3. The IBM Bimodal Accommodation Migration Offering (web download) is available for z/OS 1.4 (applicableto the z9 EC and z9 BC). This offering is not available for z/OS 1.5 & later, nor z/OS.e V1.4.

Determining Your Level of z/OS V1.4 or z/OS.e V1.4
Check if the following FMIDs are installed (or SUP’d)
► HCD HCS7708
► HCM HCM1510
► ICKDSF EDU1H01
► ICSF HCR7708
If so, you have the FMIDs for z990 support installed
► If not, then you have just z/OS V1.4 or z/OS.e base code installed
Now check if BCP FMID JBB7717 is installed
► If so, you have either
● z/OS V1.4 with the z/OS V1.4 z990 Exploitation feature
● z/OS.e V1.4 with the z/OS.e V1.4 z990 Coexistence Update feature
► If not, you have
● z/OS V1.4 with the z/OS V1.4 z990 Compatibility feature
● z/OS.e V1.4 with the z/OS.e V1.4 z990 Coexistence feature
NOTE: The z/OS V1.4 and z/OS.e V1.4 features are no longer orderable, but the code
is downloadable from the z/OS Download page
► http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/zseries/zos/downloads/
Determining Your Level of z/OS V1.4 or z/OS.e V1.4You may remember that all z/OS V1.4 and z/OS.e V1.4 orders placed after February 24, 2003 were required to
order the appropriate z990 (and z890) exploitation feature. Therefore, it is very likely that you have the
z990 support installed. The procedure to determine what level of z/OS (or z/OS.e) that you have installed isfairly straightforward. The ‘key’ is verifying the presence of a very few FMIDs.

First, check the z/OS target zone for the following FMIDs: HCS7708 (HCD), HCM1510 (HCM), EDU1H01
(ICKDSF), and HCR7708 (ICSF). If they are installed (or SUP’d), then you have at least z990 (or z890)
compatibility code installed. If they are not installed, you are running base z/OS (or z/OS.e) and will need toorder the z/OS V1.4 z990 Exploitation Support feature (if you are licensed for z/OS) or the z/OS.e V1.4
Coexistence Update feature (if you are licensed for z/OS.e).
Next, check in that same z/OS target zone if you have the BCP FMID JBB7717 installed, this will determinewhether or not you have the z990 (and z890) exploitation code installed.
• If you are licensed for z/OS and have the FMID installed, then you have the z/OS V1.4 z990
Exploitation feature installed.
• If you are licensed for z/OS and do NOT have the FMID installed, then you have the z/OS V1.4 z990
Compatibility feature installed.
• If you are licensed for z/OS.e and have the FMID installed, then you have the z/OS V1.4 z990
Coexistence Update feature installed.
• If you are licensed for z/OS.e and do NOT have the FMID installed, then you have the z/OS V1.4 z990
Coexistence feature installed.
To understand the differences between compatibility and exploitation, see chart 67 on page 64.
You will need to verify that PTFs identified in the PSP bucket are also installed, and will need an ICSF webdeliverable if you need to do secure key processing. See the following pages for more detail on how to
determine what is needed and verify what has been installed.
Reminder: For z/OS V1.4 and V1.5 customers it is time to move ahead! End of service for these releasesis planned for March 31, 2007. We encourage you to move to z/OS V1.7 or z/OS V1.8 now! If you're on z/OS
V1.4, z/OS V1.7 is the last release you can migrate to in a single step. If you're on z/OS V1.5, z/OS V1.8 is the
last release you can migrate to in a single step.

Separate PU management - new flexibility for managing Processor Units (PUs): PUs defined as Internal
Coupling Facility (ICF) processors, Integrated Facility for Linux (IFL) processors, or System z9 Application
Assist Processors (zAAPs), or System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIPs) are now managedseparately. In the past, ICF processors, IFL processors, and zAAPs were grouped together for allocation
within and across the LPARs.
The separate management of PU types enhances and simplifies capacity planning and management of theconfigured LPARs and their associated processor resources.
OSA-Express2 Ethernet on the z9 - choose any combination: The Open Systems Adapter-Express2 (OSA-Express2) features provide you with functions and scalability to help satisfy the demands of your global
business. With data rates of 10 or 100 Megabits per second (Mbps), 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps), and 10 Gbps,
you can select the features that best suit your current and future application requirements:
• OSA-Express2 Gigabit Ethernet LX (long wavelength) (#3364)
• OSA-Express2 Gigabit Ethernet SX (short wavelength) (#3365)
• OSA-Express2 1000BASE-T Ethernet (#3366)
• OSA-Express2 10 Gigabit Ethernet LR (long reach) (#3368)
With multiple Ethernet options, you have the flexibility to deploy where applicable:• 1000BASE-T Ethernet and a copper cabling infrastructure
• Gigabit Ethernet and a multimode or single mode fiber optic cabling infrastructure
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet LR and a single mode fiber optic cabling infrastructure
You have LAN connectivity solutions that can help to satisfy your departmental, data center, enterprise, LAN
backbone, building-to-building, and business continuity requirements.
The OSA-Express2 Ethernet features support the following CHPID types:

The following functions are exclusive to the OSA-Express2 features:
• OSA-Express2 OSN (OSA for NCP)(1000BASE-T, GbE) (new)
• 640 TCP/IP stacks per port, for hosting more images on the z9.
• Large send for IPv4 packets - the host sends 64 KB blocks to OSA for packet processing returning CPUcycles for application use.
• Concurrent LIC update capability - when properly configured, this capability is designed to avoid a
configuration off/on, minimizing the disruption of network traffic during an update (applicable toCHPID types OSD and OSN).
Refer to the publication OSA-Express Customer's Guide and Reference (SA22-7935).
Up to 336 FICON Express2 channels supported on a z9 EC or z9 BC: The FICON Express2 features, with 4
channels per feature, support a link date rate of 1 or 2 Gbps autonegotiated and you can now install up to 336channels (84 features) on the z9 EC or z9 BC. Up to 240 FICON channels is supported on z990.
The FICON Express2 features support:
• Native FICON and FICON Channel-to-Channel (CTC) traffic (CHPID type FC) supporting connectivity toservers, disks, tapes, and printers in the z/OS, z/VM, z/VSE, VSE/ESA, z/TPF, TPF, and Linux onSystem z9 environments
• Fibre Channel Protocol traffic (CHPID type FCP) supporting connectivity to disks, tapes, and printers
through Fibre Channel switches and directors in the z/VM, z/VSE (ESS disks only), and Linux on
System z9 environments
The FICON Express2 LX (#3319) and SX (#3320) features are offered in four channel increments, and all
channels on a single feature are of the same type, either LX or SX. You may also carry forward to the z9 your
current FICON Express2 features as well as your current FICON Express features (#2319, #2320).
FICON Express4 — 1, 2, or 4 Gbps: A new generation of FICON features, FICON Express4, are now being
offered. FICON Express4 continues the tradition of offering more capabilities with each new generation.FICON Express4:
• Is designed to deliver increased performance compared to the FICON Express2 features on z890
• Offers two unrepeated distance options (4 kilometer and 10 kilometer) when using single mode fiber
optic cabling
• Supports a 4 Gbps link data rate with autonegotiation to 1 or 2 Gbps for synergy with existing switches,
directors, and storage devices
• Offers an entry-level 4 kilometer (km) LX feature supporting two channels per feature for data
centers with limited requirements for single mode fiber optic cabling connectivity
The FICON Express4 features have two modes of operation designed for connectivity to servers, switches,
directors, disks, tapes, and printers:
1. Native FICON and FICON Channel-to-Channel (CTC) traffic (CHPID type FC) in the z/OS and z/OS.e,z/VM, z/VSE, VSE/ESA, z/TPF, TPF, and Linux on System z9 environments.
2. Fibre Channel Protocol traffic (CHPID type FCP) in the z/VM, z/VSE, and Linux on System z9environments.
The FICON Express4 features are exclusive to System z9 EC and z9 BC.

CPACF offers clear key data encryption and decryption with support of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES),
Data Encryption Standard (DES), Triple Data Encryption Standard (TDES), Pseudo Random Number Generation
(PRNG), Secure Hash Algorithm-1 (SHA-1), and SHA-256.
CPACF functions, except SHA-1 and SHA-256, are shipped disabled with every PU. Feature #3863 is a nocharge enablement feature. For new servers, shipped from the factory, #3863 CPACF enablement is loaded
prior to shipment. For other than new shipments, Licensed Internal Code is shipped by an enablement diskette.The function is enabled using the Support Element (SE).
Crypto Express2 - The Crypto Express2 feature has been designed to satisfy high-end server securityrequirements. Crypto Express2 executes the functions that were previously offered by the PCICA (#0862)
and PCIXCC features, performing hardware acceleration for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) transactions and
clear key RSA acceleration. The Crypto Express2 feature is configurable. The Crypto Express2 feature, withtwo PCI-X adapters, can be defined for secure key transactions or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) acceleration.
The Crypto Express2 feature designed to conform to the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS)
140-2 Level 4 Certification, and supports User Defined Extension (UDX) services to implement cryptographic
functions and algorithms.
Note: The crypto cards used on previous generation machines (PCICA, PCIXCC on z990 and PCICC on z900)
cannot be carried forward on an upgrade to a z9 EC or z9 BC.
If you plan to configure a Crypto Express2 as a coprocessor on the System z9 server for secure key
processing, then you must be at FMID HCR770A or later. The z990 Cryptographic Support web deliverable(FMID HCR770A) is no longer downloadable, but will provide the support if already installed. Its replacement,
the z990 and z890 Enhancements to Cryptographic Support web deliverable (FMID HCR770B) is available for
download. In addition, you must install the PTFs listed in the hardware PSP bucket (either 2094DEVICE or
2096DEVICE), as well as the service identified in the program directory that comes with the Web deliverableand the service which is recommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket.
ICSF users running on z990 servers with ICSF FMIDs HCR770A or HCR770B who are planning to use the new
Crypto Express2 Coprocessor (CEX2C), require ICSF toleration APAR OA09157. ICSF will ABEND with

Request Node Identification Data (RNID) - designed to assist with the isolation of FICON cabling-
detected errors: In a fiber optic environment, with extended distances, resolution of fiber optic cabling
problems can be a challenge. To help facilitate resolution, the operating system can now request the RNID datafor each device or control unit attached to native FICON channels and display the RNID data using an operator
command. In z/OS, the output of the DISPLAY MATRIX operator command (D M=DEV) includes RNIDs to helpmake it easier to diagnose these problems by making additional information, such as a device's serial number,
available.
RNID is exclusive to the z9, and is supported by the FICON Express2 and FICON Express features (CHPID
type FC), and by z/OS.
Up to 60 Logical Partitions: IBM is once again doubling the number of Logical Partitions (LPARs). You now have
the ability to define up to 60 LPARs, 15 LPARs per Logical Channel Subsystem, which may provide you evenmore flexibility to allocate hardware resources. With Processor Resource/Systems Manager (PR/SM) and
Multiple Image Facility (MIF) you can share ESCON and FICON channels, ISC-3s, and OSA ports across LPARs.
Support for up to 30 LPARs became available October 2003.
Support of up to 60 LPARs is exclusive to the z9 EC server and is supported by z/OS, z/VM, z/VSE (TM), TPF,z/TPF, and Linux on System z9.
OSA-Express2 OSN - Open Systems Adapter for NCP: The OSA-Express2 Gigabit Ethernet and1000BASE-T Ethernet features (#3364, #3365, #3366) now have the capability to provide channel
connectivity from System z9 operating systems to IBM Communication Controller for Linux on zSeries (CCL)
with the introduction of the Open Systems Adapter for the Network Control Program (OSA for NCP)supporting the Channel Data Link Control (CDLC) protocol, providing an alternative to a SNA network.

OSA-Express2 OSN can help to eliminate the requirement to have any form of external medium (and all
related hardware) for communications between the host operating system and the CCL image. Traffic between
the two images (operating system and CCL) is no longer required to flow on an external Local Area Network(LAN) or ESCON channel; traffic can flow LPAR-to-LPAR. OSA-Express2 OSN provides an efficient method of
communication, and is designed to create a secure and seamless integration of the host operating system and
CCL.If you continue to require SNA solutions that require NCP functions, you can now consider CCL as a migrationstrategy to replace your IBM Communications Controllers (374x). The CDLC connectivity option enables TPF
environments to now exploit CCL.
The OSA-Express2 Gigabit Ethernet and 1000BASE-T Ethernet features provide connectivity with a new
CHPID type OSN (Open Systems Adapter for NCP). Each host operating system that currently supports CDLCis expected to be able to utilize CDLC to CCL without changes to the operating system. OSA-Express2 OSN
supports both SNA PU Type 5 and PU Type 2.1 channel connectivity.
Utilizing existing SNA support (multiple transmission groups), OSA-Express2 OSN support permits multiple
connections between the same CCL image and the same host operating system (such as z/OS or TPF) image.
The operating systems must reside within the same physical server (CPC) as the CCL image.
OSA-Express2 OSN:
• Is designed to appear to the operating systems as an ESCON channel connected to a 374x device type
which exploits existing CDLC protocols
• Allows system administrators of the various operating systems to configure, manage, and operate their
CCL NCPs as if they were running in an ESCON-attached 374x Communications Controller
• Enables NCP channel-related functions such as loading and dumping of the NCP
• Does not require external hardware (cables or switches)
• Allows multiple CCL images to communicate with multiple operating system images, supporting up to 180
connections (374x subchannels) per CHPID type OSN
• Can span Logical Channel Subsystems
The CCL image connects to OSA-Express2 OSN using extensions to the QDIO architecture. Linux support is in
the QETH module.
OSA-Express2 OSN support is exclusive to the z9, to the OSA-Express2 Gigabit Ethernet SX, Gigabit
Ethernet LX, and 1000BASE-T Ethernet features (#3364, #3365, #3366), and requires the port to beconfigured as CHPID type OSN, which can be configured on a port-by-port basis. OSA-Express2 OSN is
exclusively for internal communication, LPAR-to-LPAR. Concurrent LIC update is supported. OSA-Express2
OSN is supported by z/OS, z/VM, z/VSE, TPF, and Linux on System z9. Refer to the Software requirements
section. Refer to the Statement of General Direction section for information on IBM Communication Controllerfor Linux on zSeries support of OSA-Express2 OSN.
Improved FICON error recovery: System z9 and z/OS and z/OS.e V1.7 I/O recovery processingimprovements are designed to allow for the system to detect switch/director fabric problems that may cause
FICON links to fail and recover multiple times in a short period of time.
This enhancement is designed to allow the system to detect these conditions and keep an affected path offline
until an operator action is taken. This is expected to help limit the performance impacts of switch/director
fabric problems. The improved FICON error recovery function is available on z/OS V1.4 with the z/OS V1.4
z990 Exploitation Support feature (or z/OS.e V1.4 with the z/OS.e V1.4 z990 Coexistence Update feature)with PTFs.

MIDAW (Modified Indirect Data Address Word) support: Indirect Addressing (IDA) provides virtual
storage access for channel programs. The z9 implements a new function for channel programming, modifiedindirect addressing words (MIDAWs). MIDAWs can be used to move data over FICON and ESCON channels.
For FICON channels, this support can provide substantially better response time while increasing overall

channel bandwidth. The use of the MIDAW facility, by applications that currently use data chaining, may result
in improved FICON performance by reducing channel, director, and control unit overhead. Applications that use
the following may benefit: DB2, VSAM, Partitioned Data Set Extended (PDSE), Hierarchical File System (HFS),z/OS File System (zFS), and other datasets exploiting striping and compression. Specifically, MIDAWs
exploitation by z/OS is expected to improve performance for some DB2 table scan, DB2 sequential prefetch,
BSAM, and extended-format data set operations by reducing system overhead for I/O requests on the z9 ECor z9 BC server, with no application changes.
The MIDAW facility is exclusive to the z9, and is supported by ESCON (CHPID type CNC), and by the FICON
features (CHPID types FCV and FC).
Cryptographic support: Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF) supports the cryptographic
functional updates provided by the z9, including support for clear key AES and SHA-256 cryptographicalgorithms. These functions are designed to allow customers to exploit new high-capacity hardware and a more
robust development environment, in order to help grow existing applications and deploy new applications.
Enhancements to CP Assist for Cryptographic Function (CPACF): CPACF, supporting clear key encryption, is
activated using a no-charge enablement feature (#3863) and offers the following on every Processor Unit (PU)
identified as a Central Processor (CP) or Integrated Facility for Linux (IFL):• Data Encryption Standard (DES)
• Triple Data Encryption Standard (TDES)
• Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1)
CPACF has been enhanced to include support of the following on CPs and IFLs:
• Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for 128-bit keys
• Pseudo Random Number Generation (PRNG)
• SHA-256
PRNG is a standard function supported on the Crypto Express2 feature.
CPACF performance is designed to scale with PU performance improvements. SHA-1 and SHA-256 are shipped
enabled on all servers and do not require the enablement feature.
Support for CPACF is also available using the Integrated Cryptographic Service Facility (ICSF). ICSF is acomponent of z/OS, and is designed to transparently use the available cryptographic functions, whether CPACF
or Crypto Express2, to balance the workload and help address the bandwidth requirements of your applications.
Configurable Crypto Express2: The Crypto Express2 feature has two PCI-X adapters. Each of the PCI-X
adapters can be defined as either a Coprocessor or an Accelerator.
• Crypto Express2 Coprocessor - for secure key encrypted transactions (default)
o Designed to support security-rich cryptographic functions, use of secure encrypted key values,
and User Defined Extensions (UDX)
o Designed for Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 Level 4 certification
• Crypto Express2 Accelerator (the acceleration mode for SSL/TLS operations and digital certificateoperations which were previously done in the PCICA card allows customers to migrate from PCICA to
the X Crypto Express2) - for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL/TLS) acceleration
o Designed to support clear key RSA operations
o Offloads compute-intensive RSA public-key and private-key cryptographic operations employedin the SSL protocol
When a System z9 with four CPs and both PCI-X adapters on a Crypto Express2 feature are configured as
accelerators, the Crypto Express2 feature is designed to perform up to 6000 SSL handshakes per second. This

represents, approximately, a 3X performance improvement compared to z990 when using either a PCI
Cryptographic Accelerator (PCICA) feature, with two PCI accelerators per feature, or the current Crypto
Express2 feature, with two PCI-X adapters per feature. The SSL performance was achieved using z/OS V1.7with Cryptographic Support for z/OS V1.6/V1.7 Web deliverable, and ICSF FMID HCR7730.
Since the performance enhancements are implemented in Licensed Internal Code, current Crypto Express2
features carried forward from z990 to System z9 may take advantage of increased SSL performance and thenew configuration capability.
These measurements are examples of the maximum handshakes per second achieved in a laboratoryenvironment with no other processing occurring and do not represent actual field measurements. Details are
available upon request.
For z/OS V1.6, z/OS.e V1.6, z/OS V1.7 or z/OS.e V1.7: If you want to exploit either of the following:
o Enhancements to CP Assist for Cryptographic Functions (CPACF) on the System z9 server. The
enhancements are support for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for 128-bit keys, Secure Hash
Algorithm-256(SHA-256), and Pseudo Random Number Generation PRNG.
o Crypto Express2 exploitation when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter is configured as an accelerator or a
coprocessor on the System z9 serverthen you must download and install the Cryptographic Support for z/OS V1R6/R7 Web deliverable (which wasFMID HCR7730, or the follow-on Enhancements to Cryptographic Support for z/OS and z/OS.e V1R6/R7 Web
deliverable, which is FMID HCR7731), as well as the service identified in the program directory that comes
with the Web deliverable and the service which is recommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket. Please
note that these Web deliverables also provides support for callers running in 64-bit addressing mode.
For z/OS V1.6, z/OS.e V1.6, z/OS V1.7 or z/OS.e V1.7: If you will exploit Remote Key Loading for
ATMs and Point of Sale devices (POSs), or will implement ISO 16609 CBC Mode TDES MAC, then you must
download and install the Enhancements to Cryptographic Support for z/OS and z/OS.e V1R6/R7 Web
deliverable, which is FMID HCR7731, as well as the service identified in the program directory that comes withthe Web deliverable and the service which is recommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket. Note that for
z/OS and z/OS.e V1.8, which are planned to be available September 2006, the web deliverable is not needed.
System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIP): The System z9 Integrated Information Processor
(zIIP) is the latest specialty engine for the IBM System z9 mainframe. The zIIP is designed to help improve
resource optimization and lower the cost of portions of eligible workloads, enhancing the role of the System z9
mainframe as the data hub of the enterprise. The System z9 Integrated Information Processor (zIIP) will jointhe ranks of the eServer zSeries Application Assist Processor (zAAP), and Integrated Facility for Linux (IFL).
All specialty engines run full speed.
The zIIP's execution environment will accept eligible work from z/OS (minimum level is z/OS and z/OS.e V1.6),
which will manage and direct the work between the general purpose processor and the zIIP. DB2 for z/OS V8will exploit the zIIP capability for portions of eligible workloads. The zIIP will be available on the System z9
mainframe, and its introduction can help increase the value that customers may derive from the System z9mainframe over previous generations of the IBM mainframe.
If you are running z/OS (or z/OS.e) V1.6 or V1.7 and want to use a new IBM System z9 Integrated
Information Processor Support (zIIPs), then you must download and install the IBM System z9 Integrated
Information Processor Support for z/OS and z/OS.e V1R6/R7 Web deliverable, which is FMID JBB77S9 for

1.6 and JBB772S for 1.7, as well as the service identified in the program directory that comes with the Web
deliverable (including the service which is recommended in the appropriate ZOSV1Rn BCPZIIP PSP bucket).
IBM DB2 UDB for z/OS V8 with PTFs, is also required for exploitation. Note that for z/OS and z/OS.e V1.8,which are planned to be available September 2006, the web deliverable and PTFs from the BCPZIIP PSP bucket
are not needed. (zIIP PTFs will be included in the BCP subset for z/OS V1R8).
There are updates to Omegamon products for zIIP support targeted for general availability. Refer to thezIIP PSP bucket for APAR information.1. OMEGAMON XE on z/OS
2. OMEGAMON II for MVS v550 *3. OMEGAMON Base v550 (component of the above products)
4. OMEGAMON XE for DB2 Performance Expert on z/OS v310
5. OMEGAMON XE for DB2 Performance Monitor on z/OS v310
* OMEGAMON II for MVS is a component product of OMEGAMON XE on z/OS, but also a product in its ownright. It also contains within it the product called OMEGAMON for MVS (which customers often refer to as
"OMEGAMON Classic").
You must also contact your vendors regarding zIIP support. The FMID for the web downloads changes thez/OS release to 1.7.1 for z/OS 1.7 and z/OS 1.6.1 for z/OS 1.6. Check with your ISVs to ensure this will notbe a problem.
It is possible to estimate the potential amount of DRDA work which can be redirected to a zIIP prior to
installing the required hardware and software. IBM has developed tools which can process RMF and DB2 data
to provide this information. In order to do this analysis, please have your IBM account team make a request toIBM Techline for a zIIP estimation analysis. IBM Techline will provide a data collection guide as well as an
optional DB2 data reduction tool. The data collection guide asks several questions to allow IBM to do the
proper evaluation. Return the completed data collection guide as well as FTP the required RMF data andoptional DB2 data created by the DB2 data reduction program to IBM. The data will be analyzed and a report
sent to your IBM account team.
Once the proper level of software is installed on the customer machine, RMF and DB2PM will provide additional
information which will show the potential for redirecting work to a zIIP. By using the new PROJECTCPU optionin SYS1.PARMLIB member IEAOPTxx, this analysis can be done prior to installation of the actual zIIP
hardware.
Special note on TCP Segmentation Off-load feature (also called OSA Large Send): The TCP Segmentation
Off-load feature is enabled by default if all of the requirements documented in PK02490 are met. Due to thepotential for OSAs that are using this feature to experience unrecoverable INOPs (requiring intervention by
configuring the affected CHPIDs off-line), it is currently recommended that Segmentation Off-load be
disabled. To disable Segmentation Offload, it is recommended that the following maintenance be applied andthen code NOSEGMENTATIONOFFLoad on the GLOBALCONFIG statement in the TCPIP PROFILE. Once all of
the microcode issues for Segmentation Offload are resolved, a Washington Systems Center Flash will bereleased advising what the minimum recommended code level will be. Flash 1232599 on the z/OS
Communications Server Support web page will also be updated at that time. Go to URLhttp://www.ibm.com/software/network/commserver/zos/support/ to subscribe to this (and other) updates.
APAR/PTF updates were added to 2094DEVICE and 2096DEVICE PSP buckets in the R8, R7 and R6 sections to
disable Segmentation Off-load (OSA Large Send.)

z/OS and z/OS.e V1.7 Requirements
z/OS V1.7 (z9 EC or z9 BC) or z/OS.e V1.7 (z9 BC only)
z /OS V1.7 (z9 EC or z9 BC) or z/OS.e (z9 BC Only) Multiple Subchannel Sets: Multiple Subchannel Sets (MSS) is designed to provide an increased number of
subchannels. Two subchannel sets are now available per LCSS and are designed to enable a total of 63.75K
subchannels in set-0 and the addition of 64K-1 subchannels in set-1.
With the multiple subchannel set facility, one or two sets of subchannels may be configured to each LCSSwhere subchannel set 0 (zero) may have from 1 to 63.75K subchannels defined, and subchannel set 1 (one) may
have from 1 to (64K-1) subchannels defined. z/OS will allow Parallel Access Volume Alias (PAV-alias) devices in
the subchannel set 1 (one). MSS is designed to provide greater I/O device configuration capabilities for large
enterprises.
z/OS V1.7 supports the use of a second subchannel set for defining Parallel Access Volumes (PAV) aliases on
the z9 EC and z9 BC servers, which provides an additional 64K subchannels. Moving PAV alias definitions to a
second subchannel set can allow more devices to be defined. This new function provides relief from the 64Kdevice limit by allowing PAV aliases to be defined without making device numbers unavailable for defining
additional devices. EREP support is also provided to include the subchannel number for PAV alias devices.
MSS is exclusive to the z9 EC and z9 BC servers, and is supported by ESCON (CHPID type CNC), by all of the
FICON features supported on the z9 (CHPID type FC), by z/OS, z/OS.e, and Linux on System z9.
Wild branch diagnosis improvement: A new hardware function stores the address of the last successfulbranch instruction on the z9. z/OS (and z/OS.e) V1.7 is designed to include this information in dumps, which
can make it easier to find a program that branches to an unexpected location. This can help decrease problem
determination time, improve the quality of failure diagnosis, and enhance the probability of first failure faultisolation.

February, 2007 © 2007 IBM Corporation Page 36 of 82
RMF support for more than 16 processors - Report adaptation: RMF support for more than 16 processors
in a z/OS image was made available in z/OS V1.6. In z/OS (and z/OS.e) V1.7, improved support is provided for
CPU activity and system address space analysis.
FICON link incident reporting is designed to allow an operating system image (without operator intervention)to register for link incident reports improving the ability to capture data for link error analysis. z/OS will
display this information on consoles and will also save it in the system log and in LOGREC.
FICON link incident reporting is exclusive to the z9, and is supported by the FICON Express2 and FICON
Express features (CHPID type FC), and by z/OS (and z/OS.e).
VLAN management enhancement - support of GVRP for ease of use and simplified management: The OSA-
Express2 features now support VLAN prioritization (a component of the IEEE 802.1 standard) to extend
support of VLANs to help simplify networking administration and management of VLANs. You may no longer berequired to manually enter VLAN IDs at the switch.
Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP) Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) Registration Protocol, also
referred to as GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP), is an application defined in the IEEE 802.1 standard
that allows for the control of IEEE 802.1Q VLANs.
OSA communicates with GVRP-capable (IEEE 802.1Q) switches, registering its VLANs and dynamically updatingits table as the VLANs change. VLANs are designed to ease the administration of logical groups of users - they
can communicate as if they were on the same LAN. Traffic can be organized by traffic patterns (such as
TELNET, FTP, banking transactions) rather than by physical location.
Support of GVRP is exclusive to the z9, is applicable to all of the OSA-Express2 features when in QDIO mode(CHPID type OSD), and is supported by z/OS, z/OS.e, and z/VM. Refer to Software requirements section.
HiperSockets supports IP version 6: Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) support is now being offered for
HiperSockets (CHPID type IQD). IPv6 is the protocol designed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
to replace Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) to help satisfy the demand for additional IP addresses.
IPv6 was introduced to expand the IP address space from 32 bits to 128 bits to enable a greater number ofunique IP addresses in support of the proliferation of devices now connecting to the Internet, such as cell
phones and PDAs.
This enhancement allows IPv6 communications between LPARs for z/OS TCP/IP stacks and Linux for zSeriesTCP/IP stacks. It also expands IPv6 connectivity options between TCP/IP stacks in a sysplex when
DYNAMICXCF is configured.
The support of IPv6 on HiperSockets (CHPID type IQD) is exclusive to the z9, and is supported by z/OS,
z/OS.e, and z/VM.
C/C++ ARCH(7) and TUNE(7) options: The ARCHITECTURE C/C++ compiler option selects the minimum level
of machine architecture on which your program will run. Note that certain features provided by the compilerrequire a minimum architecture level. ARCH(7) exploits instructions available on the z9 EC and z9 BC servers.
The TUNE compiler option allows you to optimize your application for a specific machine architecture withinthe constraints imposed by the ARCHITECTURE option. The TUNE level must not be lower than the setting in
the ARCHITECTURE option. For more information on the ARCHITECTURE and TUNE compiler options refer to
the z/OS XL C/C++ User’s Guide .

z/OS V1.8 (z9 EC or z9 BC) or z/OS.e (z9 BC Only)Support for up to 512 GB of Real Storage on a Single z/OS Image
z/OS V1.8 is planned to extend system limits and continue to support application workload growth. Support is
planned for up to 4 TB (4,398,046,511,104 bytes) of real memory on a single z/OS image. In z/OS V1.8 it is
planned to allow the use of up to 512 GB of real memory on a single z/OS image on IBM System z9 servers andup to 256 GB on z990 servers, an increase from the prior maximum of 128 GB. This is expected to enable
programs that use large amounts of real memory to avoid paging and swapping overheads, and to help enableworkload growth.
Preview of OSA Enhancements
Preview – when available, OSA Layer 3 VMAC, is planned to be exclusive to z9 EC and z9 BC, will be applicable
to the OSA-Express2 features and to the OSA-Express features (Gigabit Ethernet LX and SX, #1364, #1365,
#2364, #2365 and 1000BASE-T Ethernet #1366) when configured as CHPID type OSD (QDIO). OSA Layer
3 VMAC is required to exploit the support in z/OS and z/OS.e V1.8.
Preview – when available, an enhancement to the QDIO architecture (OSA-Express Network Traffic Analyzer)
will be designed to allow trace records to be sent to z/OS. This enhancement is planned to be exclusive to z9EC and z9 BC, will be applicable to the OSA-Express2 features when configured as CHPID type OSD (QDIO).
OSA-Express Network Traffic Analyzer is required to exploit the support in z/OS and z/OS.e V1.8.
Preview – When offered on z9 EC and z9 BC, QDIO Diagnostic Synchronization is planned to be applicable to
the OSA-Express2 features when configured as CHPID type OSD (QDIO). The z9 EC and z9 BC QDIO
Diagnostic Synchronization support is required to exploit the support in z/OS and z/OS.e V1.8.

PSP BucketsThere are 3 types of subsets that you need to know about:1. The hardware buckets
For z9 EC: Upgrade = 2094DEVICE, Subset = 2094/ZOS
For z9 BC: Upgrade = 2096DEVICE, Subset = 2096/ZOS► The hardware buckets identify:
● Required service for device support or exploiting specific hardwarefunctions.
● Additional recommended service
2. The software buckets Subset "BCPZIIP" (Upgrades: ZOSV1R6 & ZOSV1R7)
Contains all “recommended service” for zIIP FMIDs (JBB77S9 for 1.6 , andJBB772S for 1.7)
Subset “ICSFnnnn" (Upgrades: ZOSV1R6 & ZOSV1R7) Contains all “recommended service” for the ICSF FMID HCRnnnn
► The software buckets identify:● Recommended service to be installed when you install the software● Additional information on installation, documentation, or about the
product
3. The functional buckets► Identifies the list of Service Recommendations needed to plan for or
exploit specific functions (e.g., zAAP or zIIP processors, MIDAW, or STP)

Preventive Service Planning (PSP) Bucket Information
It is imperative all the appropriate Preventive Service Planning (PSP) buckets are obtained. In addition to the
hardware PSP buckets , the software PSP buckets must also be obtained. IBM recommends using the
“Enhanced PSP Tool” to acquire service; or ServiceLink.

If you are skipping generations of processor hardware during your migration to the System z9 processor, then
you should go to the PSP Buckets for those generations to ensure that you have all the software requirements
installed prior to IPLing z/OS or z/OS.e on the System z9. For example, if you are migrating from a 31-bit-onlyprocessor (e.g., 9672 Rx6) to a System z9 BC, then refer to the z900/z800 PSP Bucket (either 2064DEVICE
or 2066DEVICE) for the minimum z/OS and z/OS.e requirements to operate in a 64-bit environment, then
refer to the z990/z890 PSP Bucket (either 2084DEVICE or 2086DEVICE) for required software support atthat level and finally refer to the z9 BC PSP Bucket (2096DEVICE) for the unique z9 BC requirements.
Note: If you are migrating from an old driver level on a z900, z800, z990, or z890 server to System z9, then
you may want to refer to the PSP Bucket for that server to ensure that you have the highest level softwaresupport required for that level server.
The hardware buckets (2094DEVICE and 2096DEVICE) are structured to separate the minimum supportrequired from support needed to exploit specific functions. To simplify finding the appropriate PSP Buckets,
and then identifying which PTFs listed in the PSP bucket need to be installed on your system, you can usethe Technical Help Database for Mainframe Preventive Service Planning Buckets
(http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/set2/psp/srchBroker) and the Enhanced PSP Tool . The web site
provides a search capability, as well as pull down lists for types of PSP Buckets. The types currently supportedinclude Processors, z/OS, and Functions. So you can simply select the processor you are preparing for and click‘Go’. zAAPs and zIIPs are defined as Functions, so identifying PTFs needed to use (exploit) those functions, is
just as easy. Just scroll down to the ‘Find the bucket by Type, Category, and Release’ heading, select
'Function' for the Type field, select either ‘ZAAP’ or 'ZIIP' for the Category field, and click Go.
Using the Enhanced PSP Tool will simplify the identification of required service for your specific environment.The tool output presents ‘extract files’. ‘Extract’ files are simply structured lists that identify every PTF
from the PSP bucket, for every applicable z/OS release. This output can then be processed by the Enhanced
PSP Tool (ePSPt) compare program (also downloadable from that same web site). The compare program willcompare the structured list (‘extract’ file) to an SMP/E target zone, and identify any uninstalled service
(filtering out service for releases that you don’t have installed). It even will identify if any service has to be
RECEIVEd. You can then use SMP/E’s RECEIVE ORDER function (or your favorite service acquisition tool) toobtain the missing service. If desired, you can concatenate several extract files as input to the compareprogram. For example, you could concatenate the extract files for z990, z9 EC, ICSF, and zIIP; and then
compare them to you z/OS V1.6 system to identify ALL PTFs needed for your upgrade in one fell swoop.

z9 EC and z9 BC Migration Considerations Customer migration (including activation) actions vary depending on z/OS release
and existing hardware
IBM System z9 “inherits” migration considerations for z/Architecture and z990/z890
► z/Architecture (64-bit)
► LPAR ID > x’F’, CHPID Mapping Tool, Sysplex coexistence
z/OS and z/OS.e “inherits” migration considerations for z/OS releases
► V1.7 HCD
Relatively few new migration actions introduced by z9 EC or z9 BC
► Lack of connectivity to G5/G6 in parallel sysplex configurations
► May see an increase of HSA
● Depends whether the configuration is changed from the current environment
► Shouldn’t exploit new C/C++ compiler options until positive compiled code will run
on a z9 server
► Review message automation if z/OS V1.7 and using multiple subchannel sets
► If multiple LPARs share the same OSA adaptor in QDIO mode, ensure the
PORTNAME on VTAM's TRLE must match the device name in the DEVICE
statement in the TCPIP profile
► zIIP Related ‘Release’ Changes

z990 “Inherited” Migration Considerations
Migration Actions To Be Documented in► z/OS and z/OS.e Planning for Installation ►
z/OS Migration Update CFRM Policies► If Coupling Facility image resides on z990, then LPAR ID (from HMC Image Profile) is
used in CFRM policy► In order to use an LPAR ID > 15 (X'F'), z990 Compatibility (or Exploitation) code is
required on all systems in the sysplex► Use SETXCF START,POLICY,TYPE=CFRM command to make the updated policy active
Update Automation for new and changed messages► Several messages and command output updated for 2 digit LPAR IDs
Notify those affected by changed command output Update PARMLIB Members
► IPCS Support - new ICSF member, CSFIPCSP► With Exploitation, IEASYSxx - the CMB= parameter is now ignored
● May affect user and vendor programs● IEAOPTxx ECMB=NO NOT supported in z/OS V1.7 and higher
► With Exploitation, IEASYSxx - you may need to increase (by 1) the value of MAXCAD.► With Exploitation, SMFPRMxx - the description of the serial number in the SID
parameter changed when running on a z990. Perform Miscellaneous Migration actions
► Rebuild Standalone Dump► OSA/SF new GUI requires Java 1.1.2 help files and Java 1.4 run-time library loaded on
the workstation
z990 “Inherited” Migration ConsiderationMigration to z9 EC (or z9 BC) has as its basis, the migration to z990 and z890, which in turn had as its basis amigration to z900 and z800. If you are migrating to a z9 from a z990 or z890 (and have performed the
migration actions associated with z990 or z890), then you have fewer migration actions than those that arecoming from servers older than z990 or z890 and have not yet performed the migration actions associated
with z990 or z890.
It is important to note that you can migrate directly to z9 EC or z9 BC without going through to intermediate
servers, but you still do need to ensure that any migration considerations are satisfied for those servers that you "skipped".
Detailed information on ALL the “inherited” migration considerations is documented in z/OS Migration . These“inherited” migration considerations include:
• Use of z/OS features, web deliverables, as well as PTFs to provide z990 (or z890) (and coexistencesupport). The combination of deliverables vary by release.
• Migrating to z/Architecture (64-bit) mode
• Greater than x’F’ LPAR IDs and change in CPU ID. This affects
IBM and ISV products, e.g., requirement for ICKDSF R17
CFRM Policies (if Coupling Facility is on a LPAR whose ID is greater than x’F’
messages (now include 2 digit LPAR IDs) command output
• PARMLIB changes
Use of ECMB (and IEAOPTxx option to revert back to CMB for z/OS V1.6 and lower releases)
Possible need to increase MAXCAD keyword in IEASYSxx

z/OS V1.7: HCD
For z/OS releases which have HCD FMID HCS7708 installed, theycan:
► Define a 2094 without subchannel set support
► The 2094 definition is restricted to subchannel set 0 (zero)
► Requires APAR OA07875
Base z/OS V1R4 systems
► without the z990 Compatibility feature and z990 Exploitation Supportfeature
● Cannot read from or dynamically activate a V5 IODF from that z/OSV1R4 system
● To read from or dynamically activate a V5 IODF from a base z/OSV1R4 system requires either:
– V1R4 z990 Exploitation feature and PTFs for APARs OA07875
– STEPLIB to z/OS V1.7 HCD libraries
● Can IPL if BCP Allocation APAR OA08197 is installed
HCD
z/OS V1.7 HCD Migration ConsiderationA new IODF level, called V5, is introduced in z/OS V1.7. This new IODF level reduces the size of the IODF andimproves the processing performance of large configurations.
To read from, IPL with, and dynamically activate an IODF at the V5 level, the PTFs for coexistence APARs
OA07875 and OA08197 are required on back-level systems. If you attempt to IPL with a V5 IODF from a
back-level z/OS system that does not have the PTF for APAR OA08197 installed, a wait state occurs. Thecoexistence PTF for APAR OA07875 allows you to view and dynamically activate the V5 IODF, but does not
allow you to update the V5 IODF from back-level systems. Once the IODF has been upgraded to V5, the z/OSV1.7 HCD libraries must be used to process updates to it. (A STEPLIB or JOBLIB from a back-level system to
the z/OS V1.7 HCD libraries, or to a copy of the libraries, is acceptable.)
Note: APAR OA07875 is available for z/OS V1.4 systems that have the z/OS V1R4 z990 Compatibility
Support feature installed (that is, HCD FMID HCS7708). z/OS V1.4 HCD without the z990 CompatibilitySupport feature (that is, HCD FMID HCS6091) does not have an applicable coexistence PTF. (Tip: HCD FMID
HCS7708 shows up as "z/OS V1.4 HCD" on its primary panel and is described as "z/OS V1.4 HCD" in the
documentation. HCD FMID HCS6091 shows up as "OS/390 Release 9 HCD" on its primary panel.)
If you are running z/OS V1.4 without the z990 Compatibility Support feature, an additional coexistence and
fallback requirement applies: you cannot read or dynamically activate a V5 IODF from the z/OS V1.4 system.
If you want to read or dynamically activate a V5 IODF from the z/OS V1.4 system, install the z/OS V1.4 z990Compatibility Support feature (or its replacement, the z/OS V1.4 z990 Exploitation Support feature,) andinstall the PTF for APAR OA07875.
Other methods to satisfy this coexistence requirement are:
• Do not share the IODF. Use EXPORT/IMPORT or COPY to create a second IODF.
• Delay making IODF updates from the z/OS V1R7 system until all systems are at the level of the z/OSV1.4 z990 Compatibility Support feature (FMID HCS7708) or later.

“New” System z9 Migration Considerations
Acquisition and installation of requisite service, web deliverables, and features.
► Differs depending on z/OS release/service level and existing server
Ensure software and hardware vendors support z9 EC or z9 BC
► If planning to use zIIPs, verify that vendors can support the z/OS Web Deliverable If you add devices, subchannels, or LPARs, you will require larger HSA.
► Run HSA Estimator tool available from IBM Resource Link
Required actions to enable (or disable) function► HCD or HMC definitions/activation
z/VM Guest Considerations► Some functions unavailable when running as a guest
Review message automation if z/OS V1.7 and using multiple subchannel sets
► A number of messages were changed to provide a subchannel set identifier
● For example, IOS159I – to identify subchannel set 1, a new message IOS1159I wascreated
If multiple LPARs share the same OSA adaptor in QDIO mode,
► Ensure the PORTNAME on VTAM's TRLE must match the device name in the DEVICEstatement in the TCPIP profile and
► Ensure that they all are the same (including case) in every instances of TCPIP/VTAMthat share the same OSA adaptor
Client (ICSF) CKDS first initialized on a z990/890 or later, will not be usable on az900/800 or earlier server without migrating the records to a CCF-initialized CKDS

Multisystem/Sysplex Migration Considerations
“Inherited (z990)” Migration Considerations
► Same as z990 GA 1● LPAR ID > x’F’ requires compatibility support
● More than 15 LPARs defined requires CFCC code
● ICKDSF 17 is required to be installed on non-z890 and non-
z990 systems sharing DASD with a z890 or z990
– Even z/VM systems
– Can be installed as part of Compatibility (or
Exploitation Support) or as Program Product
(5655-257)● HCD compatibility code (FMID) is required to be installed on
non-z990 systems in the same JES plex (If HCD batch jobs
routed to that system)
“New” System z9 Migration Considerations
► CF Links and lack of connectivity to G5/G6► ICB-2 and ISC-3 Compatibility Mode Links no longer supported►
CF Structure size (if changing CF LEVELs)
New
“Inherited” (z990) Multisystem/Sysplex Migration ConsiderationsThe same restrictions that are present on your z/OS release level on z990 or z890 are present on the z9 ECor z9 BC. For instance, support for LPAR ID of greater than 15 (x'F') requires at least the z/OS V1.4 z990
Exploitation support. The z990 coexistence and migration requirements, including restrictions, are documentedin z/OS Migration .
New Migration ConsiderationsThe following changes introduced with z9 servers could affect your environment:
• Token ring: The z990 and z890 are the last System z servers to offer token ring adapter features on thehardware management consoles (HMCs), Support Elements (SEs), and Trusted Key Entry (TKE)
workstations. Thus: – Token ring is not available as a feature on the z9 HMC. Current HMCs with token ring
may be carried forward to a z9 during an upgrade from a z990 or z900. – Token ring is not available as a
feature on the z9 Support Element (SE) or Trusted Key Entry (TKE) workstation. Token ring is not offeredas a feature on the z9 EC or z9 BC and cannot be carried forward to a z9 during an upgrade from a z990 or
z900. – The OSA-Express Token Ring feature is not supported on the z9. Token ring is not offered as a
feature on the z9 EC or z9 BC and cannot be carried forward to a z9 during an upgrade from a z990 orz900.
• HMC: The z990 and z890 are the last System z servers on which the hardware management console (HMC)
is open. Starting with the z9 EC, the HMC is for the exclusive use of the HMC application. Customer
applications cannot reside on the HMC. The ESCON Directory and Sysplex Timer applications cannot resideon the HMC. TCP/IP is the only supported communication protocol. The HMC supports z9 ECs and z9 BCs. It
can also be used to support z990, z890, z900, z800, G5, G6, and Multiprise 3000 servers. They must be
upgraded to a new AROM level.
• ICB-2s and ISC-3s in compatibility mode: The z990 and z890 are the last System z servers to support
Integrated Cluster Bus-2 (ICB-2) and InterSystem Channel-3 (ISC-3) compatibility mode links. The z9 ECor z9 BC does not support them. If you have ICB-2 or ISC-3 compatibility mode links defined, convert them
to a supported link technology.

CF Links and lack of connectivity to G5/G6
If you have a CF image on a z9 EC or z9 BC,
► You cannot connect that CF image to any G5/G6 z/OS senders (or for
duplexing, to a G5/G6 CF).
► Having a z9 CF, therefore, introduces coexistence issues if there are anyG5/G6 servers participating in that sysplex.
► You need to start thinking about removing any existing G5/G6 images inthe sysplex
If you have a CF image on a G5/G6,
► You cannot connect that CF to any z9 z/OS senders (or for duplexing, to aCF on a z9 EC or z9 BC).
► Having a G5/G6 CF, therefore, introduces coexistence issues if there areany z9 servers participating in that sysplex.
► You need to start thinking about migrating off of the G5/G6 CFs to newer technology
If you have z/OS images running on a G5/G6 server AND a z9 server,
► They can coexist in the same sysplex as long as their CFs are not onG5/G6 or z9 servers (e.g., on a z900/z800/z990/z890),
● These "intermediate" CFs can connect to both the old (G5/G6) and thenew (z9) technology servers, so they can provide a "bridge" thatallows them to peacefully coexist in a sysplex as described above.
IC, ICB, and ISC-3 on the z9 EC and z9 BC: The z9 EC and z9 BC supports Internal Coupling channels (ICs),
Integrated Cluster Bus-3 (ICB-3), ICB-4, and InterSystem Channel-3 (ISC-3) (peer mode) links for passinginformation back and forth in a Parallel Sysplex environment.
• ICs are used for internal communication between Coupling Facilities defined in LPARs and z/OS images
on the same server. Up to a maximum of 32 can be defined per server.
• ICBs are used for server-to-server communication over short distances, using 10 meter (33 feet)copper cables, of which 3 meters (10 feet) is used for internal routing and strain relief.
o Integrated Cluster Bus-3 (ICB-3) (#0993) supports a link data rate of 1 gigabyte per second
and is used to connect z9s to z900s and z800s up to a maximum of 16 links.
o ICB-4 (#3993) supports a link data rate of 2 gigabytes per second and is used to connect z9s
to z9s, z990s, and z890s up to a maximum of 16 links.
• InterSystem Channel-3s (ISC-3s) (#0217, #0218, #0219) supports a link data rate of 2 gigabits per
second and is used for server-to-server communication at distances up to 10 km (6.2 miles) using 9micron single mode fiber optic cables. ISC-3s are supported exclusively in peer mode (CHPID type CFP).
The maximum number of external Coupling links combined (ICs, ICB-3s, ICB-4s, and active ISC-3 links) cannot
exceed 64 per server.
ICB-2 links no longer supported: ICB-2 links were used to support Parallel Sysplex connectivity between 9672
G5 and G6 servers and z990, z900, and z800 servers. ICB-2 links are no longer supported.
ISC-3 links in compatibility mode no longer supported: Attachment of ISC-3 links on the z9 EC and z9 BC to
HiPerLinks (ISC-2) on G5 and G6 servers is not supported. ISC-3 compatibility mode is not supported on the z9
EC or z9 BC (CHPID types CFS and CFR).

Parallel Sysplex coexistence with a G5/G6 and z9Senders
If a customer upgraded from a G5/G6 to z900 (or z990), but
didn’t upgrade their link technology (i.e., still use ICB-2 links):
► They will have to upgrade their links if they upgrade to a z9
server.
● While ICB-2 were supported on prior servers, they are NOT
supported on z9
● Customers with ICB-2 links need to start thinking about
upgrading their link technology
► Similar exposure with ISC-3 Compatibility mode links

Coupling Facility Control Code (CFCC)
Structure size (and CF storage) increase when moving from
►CF Level 11 to CF Level 14 (or 12/13)
►CF Level 12 or CF Level 13 to CF Level 14
CFCC level 14 does not change on a z9 EC or z9 BC
Recommendations have not changed for z9 for CP
designations
►Still Workload volume dependent
►Recommendation still to use dedicated CPs for production
CF/ICFs
CF structure sizesGenerally, when you change Coupling Facility Control Code (CFCC) levels, the Coupling Facility structure sizes
may change. z9 EC and z9 BC servers are delivered with CFCC Level 14. If as part of your z9 migration, you willchange CFCC levels (either by placing a CF on the z9 EC or z9 BC, or moving the CF to a z990 or z890 at a
higher CFCC level, then you may have larger structure sizes than you did previously. If your CFCC levels are
identical, then there are no expected changes in structure sizes when moving from a previous server to a z9.

z/OS XL C/C++ Migration Consideration
As of z/OS V1.7, the z/OS C/C++ compiler has been renamed to z/OSXL C/C++.
C/C++ ARCH(7) and TUNE(7) options:
► The ARCHITECTURE C/C++ compiler option selects the minimum level of machine architecture on which your program will run.
► Note that certain features provided by the compiler require a minimumarchitecture level. ARCH(7) exploits instructions available on z9.
► The TUNE compiler option allows you to optimize your application for aspecific machine architecture within the constraints imposed by theARCHITECTURE option.
► The TUNE level must not be lower than the setting in the ARCHITECTUREoption.
► For more information on the ARCHITECTURE and TUNE compiler options refer to the z/OS XL C/C++ User’s Guide.
Exploitation Restriction:
► Once you exploit the C/C++ ARCH(7) or TUNE(7) option, those programs may
only run on z9 servers, or an operation exception will result.► This is a consideration for programs that may run on different level servers
during development, test, production, and during fallback or disaster recovery.

General Recommendations and Considerations
z9 based on existing zSeries technology
►
z/Architecture (z900/z800)► Multiple Logical Channel Subsystems (z990/z890)
z9 capabilities differ depending on z/OS release
► Support provided on z/OS and z/OS.e V1.4 with z990 compatibility support
(and higher)
► NO SUPPORT provided for z/OSor z/OS.e V1.4 Base
► z/OS.e ONLY supported on z9 BC (z800 or z890)
Don’t migrate software releases and hardware at the same time
Keep members of the sysplex at the same software level other than
during brief migration periods.
Review z9 restrictions and migration considerations prior to creatingupgrade plan

If your current server is a G5, G6, or Multiprise 3000 and you are running z/OS V1.4 withoutthe z990 Compatibility Support feature installedIf you have z/OS V1.4 installed but you don’t have the z/OS V1.4 z990 Compatibility Support feature installed,
you must upgrade your z/OS V1.4 system to include the z990 support because you do not meet the minimumrequirement for the z9. You must also perform a migration to z/Architecture. Your migration steps are:
1. Upgrade your z/OS V1.4 system with the following:
• Either of the z990 support features: the z/OS V1R4 z990 Compatibility Support feature or the
z/OS V1R4 z990 Exploitation Support feature. The compatibility support has been replaced by theexploitation support, but still can be used if you have it. Neither feature are still orderable, but you
can still acquire the exploitation support code by downloading it from the z/OS Download page.
• The PTFs in the following PSP buckets:
o The z9 EC PSP bucket: upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZOS, or the z9 BC PSP bucket:
upgrade 2096DEVICE, subset 2096/ZOS
o The z990 PSP bucket: upgrade 2084DEVICE, subset 2084/ZOS
o The z900 PSP bucket: upgrade 2064DEVICE, subset 2064/ZOS
o The software PSP bucket identified in the program directory that comes with your deliverable.
2. If you require Crypto Express2 compatibility support when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter is
configured as a coprocessor on the z9, install the z990 Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which
has FMID HCR770A and is no longer downloadable) or its replacement, the z990 and z890 Enhancements to Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which has FMID HCR770B). In addition,install the PTFs listed in the hardware PSP bucket (either 2094DEVICE or 2096DEVICE), as well as the
PTFs identified in the program directory that comes with the Web deliverable and the PTFs that are
recommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket.
3. Install the z/OS V1R2/3/4 Bimodal Migration Accommodation to allow your system to stay in ESA/390mode (for up to six months) while you complete your hardware migration.

February, 2007 © 2007 IBM Corporation Page 55 of 82
4. Upgrade your hardware to a z9. Specify ARCHLVL 1 in your LOADxx parmlib member to allow your
system to remain in ESA/390 mode until your hardware migration is complete, and you are ready to do
your z/Architecture migration. When using the z/OS V1R2/3/4 Bimodal Migration Accommodation , youcan run in ESA/390 mode for six months for each z/OS license starting from the registration of a
z/OS license to a z/Architecture-capable server.5.
Migrate to z/Architecture mode by first specifying ARCHLVL 2 in your LOADxx parmlib member, andthen by following the z/Architecture migration instructions in z/OS Migration . When your migration toz/Architecture is complete, remove your ARCHLVL specification and allow ARCHLVL to default to 2.
If your current server is a G5, G6, or Multiprise 3000 and you are running z/OS V1.4 witheither the z990 Compatibility Support feature or z990 Exploitation feature installedYour z/OS level is acceptable for a migration to z9, however, you must include a migration to z/Architecture as
part of your migration to z9 EC or z9 BC. Your migration steps for this scenario are:1. Ensure that you have installed the required service from the following PSP Buckets:
• The z9 EC PSP bucket: upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZOS, or the z9 BC PSP bucket: upgrade
2096DEVICE, subset 2096/ZOS
• The z990 PSP bucket: upgrade 2084DEVICE, subset 2084/ZOS• The z900 PSP bucket: upgrade 2064DEVICE, subset 2064/ZOS
• The software PSP bucket identified in the program directory that comes with your deliverable.
2. If you require Crypto Express2 compatibility support when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter isconfigured as a coprocessor on the z9, install the z990 Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which
has FMID HCR770A and is no longer downloadable) or its replacement, the z990 and z890
Enhancements to Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which has FMID HCR770B). In addition,install the PTFs listed in the hardware PSP bucket (either 2094DEVICE or 2096DEVICE), as well as the
PTFs identified in the program directory that comes with the Web deliverable and the PTFs that are
recommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket.
3. Install the z/OS V1R2/3/4 Bimodal Migration Accommodation to allow your system to stay in ESA/390
mode (for up to six months) while you complete your hardware migration.4. Upgrade your hardware to a z9. Specify ARCHLVL 1 in your LOADxx parmlib member to allow your
system to remain in ESA/390 mode until your hardware migration is complete, and you are ready to do
your z/Architecture migration. When using the z/OS V1R2/3/4 Bimodal Migration Accommodation , you
can run in ESA/390 mode for six months for each z/OS license starting from the registration of a
z/OS license to a z/Architecture-capable server.5. Migrate to z/Architecture mode by first specifying ARCHLVL 2 in your LOADxx parmlib member, and
then by following the z/Architecture migration instructions in z/OS Migration . When your migration to
z/Architecture is complete, remove your ARCHLVL specification and allow ARCHLVL to default to 2.
Reminder: For z/OS V1.4 customers it is time to move ahead! End of service for these releases is plannedfor March 31, 2007. We encourage you to move to z/OS V1.7! If you're on z/OS V1.4, z/OS V1.7 is the last
release you can migrate to in a single step.

If your current server is a z800 or z900 and you are running z/OS V1.4 without the z990Compatibility Support feature (or running z/OS.e V1.4 without the z990 Coexistencesupport feature) installedIf you have z/OS V1.4 installed but you don’t have the z/OS V1.4 z990 Compatibility Support feature installed,
or you have z/OS.e V1.4 but you don’t have the z/OS.e V1.4 z990 Coexistence feature installed (and you aremigrating to a z9 BC server), you must upgrade your z/OS (or z/OS.e) V1.4 system to include the z990 support
because you do not meet the minimum requirement for the z9. You do not need to perform a z/Architecture
migration; it is assumed that you completed your migration to z/Architecture after you migrated to the z900or z800. Your migration steps are:
1. Upgrade your system with the following:
• For z/OS, install either of the z990 support features: the z/OS V1R4 z990 Compatibility Support
feature or the z/OS V1R4 z990 Exploitation Support feature. The compatibility support has been
replaced by the exploitation support, but still can be used if you have it. Neither feature are still
orderable, but you can still acquire the exploitation support code by downloading it from the z/OSDownload page.
• For z/OS.e (for a z9 BC server), install either of the z990 support features: the z/OS.e V1.4 z990
Coexistence feature or the z/OS.e V1.4 z990 Coexistence Update feature. The former is no longerorderable and has been replaced by the latter, but it can be used if you have it. The coexistence
support has been replaced by the coexistence update support, but still can be used if you have it.Neither feature are still orderable, but you can still acquire the exploitation support code by
downloading it from the z/OS Download page.
• The PTFs in the following PSP buckets:
o The z9 EC PSP bucket: upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZOS, or the z9 BC PSP bucket:
upgrade 2096DEVICE, subset 2096/ZOS
o The z990 PSP bucket: upgrade 2084DEVICE, subset 2084/ZOS
o The software PSP bucket identified in the program directory that comes with your deliverable.

2. If you require Crypto Express2 compatibility support when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter is
configured as a coprocessor on the z9, install the z990 Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which
has FMID HCR770A and is no longer downloadable) or its replacement, the z990 and z890
Enhancements to Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which has FMID HCR770B). In addition,

PTFs identified in the program directory that comes with the Web deliverable and the PTFs that arerecommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket.
3. Upgrade your hardware to a z9.
If your current server is a z800 or z900 and you are running z/OS V1.4 with the z990Compatibility Support feature (or running z/OS.e V1.4 with the z990 Coexistence supportfeature)Your operating system level is acceptable for a migration to z9, you do not need to perform a z/Architecture
migration, as it is assumed that your migration to z/Architecture was completed after you migrated to z800,z900, z890, or z990. Your migration steps for this scenario are:
1. Ensure that you have installed the required service from the following PSP Buckets:
• The z9 EC PSP bucket: upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZOS, or the z9 BC PSP bucket: upgrade2096DEVICE, subset 2096/ZOS
• The z990 PSP bucket: upgrade 2084DEVICE, subset 2084/ZOS
• The software PSP bucket identified in the program directory that comes with your deliverable.
2. If you require Crypto Express2 compatibility support when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter isconfigured as a coprocessor on the z9, install the z990 Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which
has FMID HCR770A and is no longer downloadable) or its replacement, the z990 and z890
Enhancements to Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which has FMID HCR770B). In addition,

If your current server is a G5, G6, or Multiprise 3000 and you are running z/OS V1.5Your z/OS level is acceptable for a migration to z9, however, you must include a migration to z/Architecture as
part of your migration to z9 EC or z9 BC without the Bimodal Migration Accommodation. The Bimodal Migration
Accommodation is not available on z/OS V1.5. Therefore, you must perform a hardware first migration, whichwill include a migration to z/Architecture as part of the migration to z9. Your migration steps for this
scenario are:
1. Ensure that you have installed the required service from the following PSP Buckets:• The z9 EC PSP bucket: upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZOS, or the z9 BC PSP bucket: upgrade
2096DEVICE, subset 2096/ZOS
• The z990 PSP bucket: upgrade 2084DEVICE, subset 2084/ZOS
• The z900 PSP bucket: upgrade 2064DEVICE, subset 2064/ZOS
• The software PSP bucket identified in the program directory that comes with your deliverable.
2. If you require Crypto Express2 compatibility support when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter isconfigured as a coprocessor on the z9, install the z990 Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which
has FMID HCR770A and is no longer downloadable) or its replacement, the z990 and z890
Enhancements to Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which has FMID HCR770B). In addition,install the PTFs listed in the hardware PSP bucket (either 2094DEVICE or 2096DEVICE), as well as the
PTFs identified in the program directory that comes with the Web deliverable and the PTFs that arerecommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket.
3. Upgrade your hardware to a z9 and migrate to z/Architecture mode concurrently. Follow thez/Architecture migration instructions in z/OS Migration .
If your current server is a z800, z900, z990, or z890 and you are running z/OS or z/OS.e V1.5Your operating system level is acceptable for a migration to z9, you do not need to perform a z/Architecture
migration, since V1.5 must run in z/Architecture mode on z800, z900, z890, or z990 servers. Your migrationsteps for this scenario are:

1. Ensure that you have installed the required service from the following PSP Buckets:
• The z9 EC PSP bucket: upgrade 2094DEVICE, subset 2094/ZOS, or the z9 BC PSP bucket: upgrade
2096DEVICE, subset 2096/ZOS
• The z990 PSP bucket: upgrade 2084DEVICE, subset 2084/ZOS (if not already on a z990 or z890)
• The software PSP bucket identified in the program directory that comes with your deliverable.
2. If you require Crypto Express2 compatibility support when a Crypto Express2 PCI-X adapter isconfigured as a coprocessor on the z9, install the z990 Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (whichhas FMID HCR770A and is no longer downloadable) or its replacement, the z990 and z890
Enhancements to Cryptographic Support Web deliverable (which has FMID HCR770B). In addition,install the PTFs listed in the hardware PSP bucket (either 2094DEVICE or 2096DEVICE), as well as the
PTFs identified in the program directory that comes with the Web deliverable and the PTFs that are
recommended in the appropriate ICSF PSP bucket.3. Upgrade your hardware to a z9.
Note: z/OS.e is NOT supported on the z9 EC (it is only supported on z9 BC, z800 and z890 servers).
Reminder: For z/OS V1.4 and V1.5 customers it is time to move ahead! End of service for these releases
is planned for March 31, 2007. We encourage you to move to z/OS V1.7 or z/OS V1.8 now! If you're on z/OS
V1.5, z/OS V1.8 is the last release you can migrate to in a single step.

Summary: Migration Actions
Actions you can take before you order a z9 EC or z9 BC
► Review the sysplex configuration in which the z9 will participate
● Move any existing G6 or G6 z/OS images or coupling facilities to newer
technology
► Review your current link technology
► Review ‘inherited’ z990/z890 coexistence requirements
► Install the necessary z/OS service and web deliverables
► Run CFSIZER (if you are moving your coupling facilities)
► Estimate the amount of HSA needed
► Review message automation if z/OS V1.7 and using multiple subchannel sets
► Verify PORTNAME on VTAM's TRLE match the device name in the DEVICE
statement in the TCPIP profile (If multiple LPARs share the same OSA
adaptor in QDIO mode)
► Review zIIP Related ‘Release’ Changes
► Create a z9 migration plan
Actions you can take after you order a z9 EC or z9 BC► Use HCD and the CHPID Mapping tool to define the processor

z/OS HCR7731 ICSF includes all prior support plus z9 exploitation support for Remote Key Loading for ATMs and point of sale devices, and implementationof ISO 16609 CBC Mode TDES MAC
► Remote Key Loading refers to the process of loading Data Encryption Standard (DES)keys to Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) and Point of Sale (POS) devices from acentral administrative site without the need for personnel to visit each machine tomanually load DES keys. These enhancements provide two important new features:
– The ability to load initial keys to an ATM or a POS device from a remote location.
– Enhanced capabilities for exchanging keys with non-CCA cryptographicsystems.

I – Neither z/OS V1.4 without any z990 features, nor z/OS.e V1.4 without any z990 features, supports z9 BC.
Also, neither z/OS V1.4 without any z990 features, nor z/OS.e V1.4 without any z990 features, can participate
in a sysplex when a z/OS or Coupling Facility (CF) image in that same sysplex is running on a z990, z890, or z9server and the LPAR ID of the z/OS or CF image defined is greater than 15 (x"F").II - z9 BC supports 30, not 60 LPARs
Y0
– z990 (and z9) support limited to compatibility. z/OS or z/OS.e can use a single Logical Channel Subsystem(LCSS 0), and IPL in an LPAR whose LPAR ID is less than or equal to x’F’. Compatibility support required z/OS1.4 with z/OS 1.4 z990 Compatibility Support feature (no longer orderable) or its replacement, the z/OS 1.4
z990 Exploitation Support feature (an unpriced, orderable feature). For z/OS.e, compatibility support requiredz/OS.e V1.4 with z/OS.e V1.4 z990 Coexistence feature (no longer orderable) or its replacement the z/OS.e
V1.4 z990 Coexistence Update feature.
Y1 – CHPID type OSN in support of OSA-Express2 requires the z/OS 1.4 z990 Exploitation Support feature(an unpriced, orderable feature. Other CHPID types, (for GbE: OSD; for 10 GbE: OSD; and for 1000BASE-T
Ethernet: OSC, OSD, and OSE) are supported with the z/OS 1.4 z990 Compatibility Support feature.
