Radoslaw,

The announcement letter says the planned availability date for the enhancements 
is September 15.  I believe the documentation will be available on that date as 
well.  In your note below, you quoted them " and will be available at planned 
availability in the "Library" section of Resource Link:".

Subject: [External] IBM z15 Announcement Letter

I just read IBM Announcement Letter regarding z15 enhancements 
https://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/0/897/ENUS120-050/index.html&lang=en&request_locale=en

At the bottom they write about documentation.

The following publications are shipped with the product and will be available 
at planned availability in the "Library" section of Resource Link:
IBM 8561 Service Guide    GC28-6998
IBM 8562 Service Guide    GC28-7010

Service Guide. This manual is delivered with MES (upgrade) or with new machine 
- "shipped with the product".
However it is NOT available in Resource Link.
So, the official Letter tells us lies.

It is not just typo, or "books are not yet available". Similar information is 
mentioned in many previous Letters, but Service Guide is NOT available for z15, 
z14, z13, etc.

Is it intentional? What is the goal to misinform customers?

Notes:
1. This is not classified as "licensed" or "restricted" material. This is one 
of the books comprising technical documentation available to customer.
2. This book is delivered on CD and/or hardcopy. It is delivered with new 
machine or with MES (upgrade).
3. AFAIK this is the only book in such strange state. Other documentation is 
available on Resource Link. Everything except this one book.
4. Do not confuse this Service Guid with similar titles, like Service Guide for 
HMC, SE, TKE. This manual is for CPC.
