The documentation is correct. Anything older than EC12 (or BC12) will drop to a wait state. I've tried it on a z196 and almost instantly get a wait.

I see that the wait state documentation for z/OS 2.3 wait state 07B says that "Miscellaneous-instruction-extension facility" is required and that appears to have been added arch-level 10 <https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.cbcux01/archcop.htm> and z114 is arch-level 9. The other facilities appears to be present in z114. Still, I wonder if this is reflective of the reality. Does anyone on the list have any real life confirmations that it will indeed blow up in my face if I try it?
