I mis-read the original post. I thought the z9 was being replaced, not
the z890. Having re-read the OP, I would say the toleration maint is
mandatory for the z/890 LPARs, and highly desireable for the z9 LPARs.

Apologies to the OP.

BTDT. I did the test: z/OS 1.7 did not IPL on z10 - some message about 
WLM and wait state. PTFs fixed this. YMMV.
