They are XC mode machines so that they can use data spaces - it really
has nothing whatsoever to do with expanded storage. (XC stands for
eXtended Configuration - an extension to the zSeries architecture
specially designed for use by z/VM)
If you manage to track down that document, please let us know, since it
definitely needs to be fixed.
Thank you,
