LOL, maybe so.  And do most z/OS installations have that full redundancy?

I think what it means is that you will only "suffer" .3 seconds of application 
outage in a year.  Of course that means you have a fully redundant SYSPLEX set 
up with duplicated everything such that when you do have to bring down a CEC, 
the application workload is pushed to a different node and keeps running.

I'm just getting around to reading the article someone cited here:

  
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/results-mainframe-application-modernization-migration-ross-mauri/

I heard that "8 9s" claim go by before, but I didn't pay much attention.  But 
in the article it says that equates to 0.3 sec of downtime per year, and I 
pause.

Does "down time" not include IPL, then?  When you IPL, doesn't that count as 
"down"?  Because if it doesn't, I don't see what use that measure is.  Or does 
no one IPL any more?
