This shows to me (I´m a fresh new guy in z/os world) that binaries for 
z/os 1.8 and z/os.e 1.8 are same, and functions are enabled
or disabled by changing product ID from 5655-G52 to 5694-A01. So, I can 
conclude that PSP upgrade zosv1r8 could be applied to
z/os.e 1.8. In other words, there are no specific psp for z/os.e 1.8. 
I´m correct?

    I hope you're right about that but I wouldn't make that assumption myself.  
Not sure of the FMID environment differences so you might have trouble putting 
the z/OS 1.8 psp onto z/OS 1.8.e just for that reason.  You'll see I'm sure.  I 
wish you luck Carlos.

It is wise to keep in mind that neither
success nor failure is ever final...

Subject: z/os x z/os.e differences

Hi listners,

Contuning my saga about z/os.e and z10 BC, we tried to IPL it before 
install psp and get following message:

IFA200W LICENSE=z/OSe WAS SPECIFIED BUT IS NOT ALLOWED.

This message says that z/os.e runs only in z800 and z890 machines and 
Lpars needs to have an specific name zosexxxx.

Checking google about z/os.e and z10 BC we found a Share presentation 
dated  from 2007 that says something about z/os.e 1.7
and 1.8 and z9 BC. It says in one step of migration following statement:

If you currently run z/os.e 1.7 or 1.8 and want to run same level, but 
with z/os zNalc pricing do the following:
     a - Get your z/os license with zNalc pricing. Ensure to have same 
priced features in new z/nalc license as you have in z/os.e.
     b - Shutdown your z/os.e system
     c - Modify the z/os.e customization as follows:
             c1 - In parmlib member IFAPRDxx convert all the enabled 
z/OS.e statements for ID 5655-G52 to z/OS statments for ID 5694-A01

This shows to me (I´m a fresh new guy in z/os world) that binaries for 
z/os 1.8 and z/os.e 1.8 are same, and functions are enabled
or disabled by changing product ID from 5655-G52 to 5694-A01. So, I can 
conclude that PSP upgrade zosv1r8 could be applied to
z/os.e 1.8. In other words, there are no specific psp for z/os.e 1.8. 
I´m correct?

Thanks in advance for any comment about.
