z/OS Software Support for IBM zEnterprise EC12 or zBC12 Server

Project and Program: MVS, MVS Core Technologies

Tags: Proceedings , SHARE in Boston 2013 , 2013

The IBM zEnterprise EC12 (zEC12) and IBM zEnterprise BC12 (zBC12) are the newest members of the IBM zEnterprise System family. Combined with the newly enhanced IBM zEnterprise BladeCenter Extension (zBX) Model 003 and IBM zEnterprise Unified Resource Manager (zManager), the zEC12 and zBC12 offer proven hybrid computing design that can help you manage and integrate workloads across multiple architectures with the simplicity of a single system. All supported z/OS releases can participate in a sysplex with a CF or operating system image on a zEC12 or zBC12 server. The speaker will discuss how to upgrade z/OS to exploit a zEC12 or zBC12 server. This session will describe the software required to run on a new server (including cryptographic software), migration actions required to use the new server, and any actions required to exploit new zEC12 or zBC12 functions. This session will be of interest to systems programmers and their managers who might upgrade to a IBM zEnterprise EC12 or zBC12 server. Greg Daynes IBM Corporation
