Go with IIP and IFA. SUP will do fine for IIP. Ignore ZCBP. The 
fields haven't changed. (I haven't seen a zAAP in a long time, though.)

Despite what such products as RMF have chosen to display (and likely has 
made its way into all sorts of places), "IIP" is not a valid term. The 
name/term is zIIP, and similarly it is zAAP not AAP. You're welcome to 
continue using the pre-release names of SUP for zIIP and IFA for zAAP 
because we had to code something (the real names were not made known to us 
until way too late to support only those names). We cannot compatibly get 
rid of them, so fields with those names will exist forever.

I'd suggest being consistent -- either use the names or the pre-release 
names but don't intermix.

Current processors do not support zAAP. I've forgotten which was the last 
machine that did.
