Tom--That doesn't match what I remember from when we first got the z9.
I think that we, initially, ran with the 31 bit nuc on the z9. We are
running 4.4, now, with the 64 bit option. Until recently, I ran my 2nd
level test 4.4 system using the 31 bit nuc under a 4.4 nuc running with
the 64 bit nuc.

One small item to consider...
zVM 4.x was the dual image release. There are 2 different supervisors. =

to use the 64 bit one. No big deal. =20
Except if you have something that is depending on your old supervisor. =20
A patch you applied..
Chaining thru the control blocks..
The default on the z/890 was the 64 bit supervisor.
If for some reason, you were running the 31 bit supervisor on your z/890 =
(which you can select), your only option is the 64 bit supervisor on the =
z9.
Again, no big deal. Just something to keep in back of your mind, after =
conversion.

We've been running 4.4 on a z9 since we got the z9 in February. There=20
