>From the migration guide for 2.2 http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/e0z3b111.pdf
z/OS V2R2 is not supported on the following servers: IBM System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC) IBM System z9 Business Class (z9 BC) IBM eServer zSeries 990 (z990) IBM eServer zSeries 890 (z890) IBM eServer zSeries 900 (z900) IBM eServer zSeries 800 (z800). I would expect a few things. 1) any functions that fails on this configuration is not supported by the vendor 2) any enhancements in z/OS V2.2 that is dependent on the firmware/microcode, would fail. Might be you could not even IPL 3) weird and undetermined abends. For example S0C4's were you would not expect them Lizette > -----Original Message----- > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU] On > Behalf Of R.S. > Sent: Friday, November 18, 2016 8:43 AM > To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU > Subject: z/OS 2.2 and z9 > > 1.
