Re: CPACF Metrics for z9
Hi Radoslaw and Jeffrey, After I got the zSeries 990 document from Radoslaw (Thanks again!) I tried to lookup similar docs for the z9. And here they are. http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/z/security/cryptography.html contains links to these 2 z9 performance docs at the right hand side of this page: “IBM System z9 Business Class Performance of Cryptographic Operations (Cryptographic Hardware: CPACF, CEX2C, CEX2A)” (May 2006) www.ibm.com/systems/z/security/pdf/Web_z9_BC_Crypto_Rel_052006_Final.pdf “IBM System z9-109 Performance of Cryptographic Operations (Cryptographic Hardware: CPACF, CEX2C, CEX2A)” (January 2006) www.ibm.com/systems/z/security/pdf/Web_z9_Crypto_Rel_01202006_X.pdf (z9-109 being the first naming for z EC (Enterprise Class) as you know).
