For z/OS, the programming interface for determining if vectors are
available is
SYS1.MACLIB(CVT)
CVTVEF EQU X'80' Vector Extension Facility @NUA
This will be on when you are on at least z/OS 2.1, and this bit is on:
BROWSE SYS1.MACLIB(IHAFACL)
Facl_VectorExtensionFacility EQU X'40' Bit 129. z13 Even if this bit *
is on, do not use the VEF unless *
bit CVTVEF is on.
