Amen to what Chris said.  

Java is the first implementer of the zAAP engine, and its use is auto-magic.
zAAP is not just for Java apps, it's just that Java was the first "app" to
get their foot in the door, just as DB2 V8 was first for zIIP exploitation
for certain joins, stored procedures, user defined functions, index related
processing for DB2 utilities, and (phew...) DRDA processing.

No its completely bogus. That -would- be true for zIIP work, but not for
zAAP. JAVA work runs on a zAAP if there's one present unless you tweak
the JVM to say you don't want it to.
