I didn't realize that. But it is still NDA to us "unwashed masses" <grin>. And I do understand why. It would allow us to run our normal production work on a zIIP. Which would cause all sorts of licensing problems; which the zIIP was designed to solve. I am fairly sure that there are only few differences between a zIIP and a CP millicode load. I don't know, one way or the other, if a zIIP can field I/O interrupts or do I/O type instructions.
