Hi List,

thanks for the responses so far.
It was just an idea, if there was a possibility to move some CPU intensiv pieces of code out to the upcoming zIIP processors (requires SRB envlave mode). In our shop the main cost driver is CPU. Nevertheless, I assume there are more issues waiting, if calling routines as SRB. In high level languages it would be hardly possible to ensure the SRB restrictions such as not calling SVCs etc. Not to mention the authorization issues for normal programs. If that were possible I would have continued to investigate if SRBs could be used in IMS transactions. Some of our IMS transactions do a lot of scanning of in memory tables, which requires a lot of CPU. Since this pieces of code just do memory work, I thought that were candidates for SRBs, since those code sections do not use any IMS services or SVCs.

Thanks for your responses.
Denis Gaebler.

No.

But why would you?

What kind of SRB service would be required by a high-level language routine?

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
