I would say at this point of the JESes and z/OS, that probably 70-80% of

With MAS, JES2 has certainly become more global in

Vendors also use these reports to validate the size of the LPAR that
products run in.
It would be nice if IBM would allow non-IBM products to participate in the
SCRT.

For IBM-MAIN
there, have confirmed that their
products are following standard SMP/E methods. The rest are
following right behind the others. I'm more of a glass-half-full
person, so I enjoy the ones that are already there, and look forward
to the ones that will soon follow.

It is eligible to run on a zIIP.

OK- I'll try it again. First there is the issue of Capacity.
When you add specialty engines to an LPAR, the LPAR's capacity
acts almost like the n-way increase. So, if you have a 10-way,
and add 2 zIIPs and 2 zAAPs, that LPAR now acts almost like a
14-way. That decrease your capacity by about
Have you not consider CA SYSVIEW? Much easier to install. Much easier to
maintain. Same functionality or better. Much less resource consumption.

Just because there is a zIIP, should you zIIPify everything?
Not to start a religious war, but what percent of what is going
to a zIIP? Please remember, there is overhead to use specialty
processors. So you'd better be able to offload 20-30% (IMHO).
