The z9 requires a high-level of the HMC program. IMHO, the easiest way to get this new level is to get a new HMC. In our case, we upgraded from a 7060-H30 to a z9 BC. The existing 7060 HMC could not be upgraded to control a z9 and as far as I know the HMC version shipped with a z9 can't be used to control a G5/G6 processor. As you are running z-series, it is possible that you can use your existing HMCs, but you will almost certainly have to upgrade the level of the HMC code to do so. Check with IBM.
