2012 IBM Corporation

Leverage the latest operating systems to exploit the full value of the z114and z196
z/OS Version 1 Release 13 z/VM and Linux on System z z/VSE Version 5.1

z/OS Predictive Failure Analysis and Runtime Diagnostics - help provide early warning of certain system issues before they become obvious Updates to shorten batch window, simplify batch programming, and give you more flexibility in deploying batch applications. Enhancements to improve I/O performance for z/OS UNIX workloads in a Parallel Sysplex Improved backup capability and system responsiveness with less-disruptive backups. XML Performance improvements for complex docs Continued investment in simplification with z/OS Management Facility Support of new encryption and compliance standards and keys

Server and application consolidation on System z using Linux on System z and z/VM is the industry leader in large-scale, cost-efficient virtual server hosting zEnterprise extends the choice of integrated workloads through blades on zBX The z114 lowers the entry cost to get started with the Enterprise Linux Server Faster cores and a bigger system cache on the z196 let you do even more with less when running Linux on System z and z/VM Integrated blades on zBX will offer added dimension for workload optimization including applications on Windows

Introduces 64-bit virtual addressing to z/VSE Reduces memory constraints Allows to exploit more data in memory Continues the z/VSE strategy of protect, integrate, and extend (in short PIE) Protect existing customer investments in applications and data on z/VSE Integrate z/VSE with the rest of IT Extend with Linux on System z to build modern integrated solutions Exploitation of selected zEnterprise functions and features as well as IBM System Storage options Includes a SoD on CICS Explorer capabilities for CICS TS for VSE/ESA

2012 IBM Corporation

Superior virtualization for today and the future: z/VM 6.2

Relief from the challenges associated with virtual machine sprawl on competitive systems

Increased flexibility with Live Guest Relocation (LGR) to move virtual servers without disruption. Increased management of resources with multi-system virtualization to allow up to four z/VM instances to be clustered as a single system image. Increased scalability with up to four systems horizontally, even on mixed hardware generations. Increased availability through non-disruptively moving work to available system resources and non-disruptively moving system resources to work.

LGR is the very best z/VM software enhancement since 64-bit support became available.
Mark Shackelford, Vice President, Information Services, Baldor

29

CSL-WAVE 3.0 will provide day-one support for z/VM 6.2 allowing users to harness its powerful new features in an easy, graphical and very intuitive manner.
