VM Documentation Symbols
Some symbols and acronyms used in the table are:
| X |
Indicates that this Version.Release.Modification level of
this product is supported in the environment represented
by that column.
|
| NA |
Mode is not applicable. Product does not run in the host.
But is supported with this VM environment.
|
| - |
Indicates product is not support by IBM in a given VM
environment. Some "AS-IS" products have programming
support services available for a fee.
|
| EOS |
End of Service (synonym = End of Currency). |
| FCS |
First Customer Ship. |
| GA |
General Availability. |
| PRPQ |
Programming Request for Price Quotation (IBM custom built
program products).
|
| TBD |
To Be Determined. |
| WfM |
Equates to: Withdrawal from Marketing (synonym = End of
Marketing).
|
| | |
In the left margin denotes new products and note changes
since the last version.
|
| * $ % @ + ** |
Indicate there is a note in the 1st table note below
this row. The note may relate to service, Year 2000 or
some special information about this product running on the
specific level of VM/ESA.
|
NOTE:
A blank cell indicates that support information for this
Version.Release.Modification level was not available at the time of
publication. You should contact IBM Service for specific questions.
NOTE:
Due to space constraints, we cannot list all the information which may be
relevant to running a particular
product in a particular z/VM environment. You should always check with your IBM
Service representative or on
OITools for the latest information on installation and service.
Service for PRPQs ranges from full Central Support, to 100 days of support, to
none.
The following symbols are used in the VM/ESA (other than
the V1 R1.5 370 Feature) columns:
370 |
Executes in a 370 mode virtual machine using 24-bit addressing
and 370 I/O |
| TOL |
Toleration mode: Executes in an XA mode virtual machine using 24-bit addressing
and XA I/O. Tol
means 370-XA architecture toleration.
Note: some translators (eg. HLASM, PL/I V2, PASCAL) will generate code that
will use 31-bit
addressing.
|
| EXP |
Exploitation mode: Executes in an XA mode virtual machine using 31-bit
addressing and XA I/O.
Exp means 370-XA architecture exploitation. Some products which exploit 31 bit
addressing may
require that a segment be saved below the 16 megabyte line. This information is
contained in the individual
product documentation. I will note this when I have that information.
|
| SVM |
At least one Server machine runs only in a 370 mode virtual machine, user code
will run in an XA or
XC mode virtual machine.
|
| XCTol |
XC Toleration: Executes in an XC mode virtual machine and is either
XA-370 Tolerant (see definition
of Tol above) or XA-370 Exploitive (see definition of Exp above). VM Data
Space Support is not
exploited.
|
| XCExp |
Support offered by the ESA/XC architecture.
XC Exploitation: Executes in an XC mode virtual machine and uses/exploits the
VM Data Space
Support offered by the ESA/XC architecture.
|
| 370A |
370 Accomodation: Program(s) must execute in a virtual machine with 370
Accomodation mode set to
ON.
