As it has been explained to me, members of IBM PartnerWorld in Development 
(PWD) are entitled to obtain the FLEX-ES dongle that enables the 
z/Architecture support.  Non-members are not.

Non-PWD members are not supposed to be in possession of the dongle and are 
not licensed to use z/Architecture on the box even if they *do* possess 
it.  (An agreement with IBM to the contrary overrides the whole thing, of 
course.)
