All current zSeries operating systems can take advantage of Hipersockets
(except maybe TPF). I think since z/OS 1.3? 1.4? Not sure...

I was looking at Hipersockets for our z890, and found this
paragraph:
zSeries HiperSockets is a technology that provides high-speed
TCP/IP connectivity between
virtual machines (under z/VM) within System z servers. It
eliminates the need for any physical
cabling or external networking connection between these virtual
machines.
in the following Redbook:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg246990.pdf
Can you confirm that Hipersockets work only with VM? I though
z/OS TCPIP could use them as well.
Thanks.
