This flash references APAR PQ88207. The "Local Fix" portion of the
APAR description states:
"Run on hardware the includes the Long Displacement Facility or has
the simulation/emulation software."
(The quote is literal from the IBM APAR description -- the first
occurrence of the word "the" is an IBM typo that should be the word
"that".)
I was not aware of Long Displacement Facility "simulation/emulation
software" which was distributed as a base part of z/OS. Was this
simulation capability available in z/VM?
The only "simulation/emulation" I know of was the millicode upgrade to the
Licensed Internal Code on the processor hardware. Was there something
distributed with z/OS?
