Going way back, look into the instigators for cross memory (AKA XA), and you'll find DB2's names at the top of the list. Cross Memory Services came out before XA. (MVS/SP1.2 -- it was available on the 3032 3033, neither of which supported XA). And, IMS was the main instigator. - Too

We have ambitions of getting into zIIP because of a dfSMS change that occurred very recently without much fanfare. SDM (System Data Mover), the heart of XRC (aka Global Mirroring for z [or whatthehellever]) will now utilize a zIIP engine. I realize that XRC is not everyone's cup of SCIDS nectar,
