Re: Instructions by Machine

We're actually using OPTABLE(Z12). Honestly, I'd rather the assembler fail than have a customer get some kind of program exception because they didn't have the right hardware (or feature). I can justify Z12 easily so that's why we have it set in the configuration. *Mark* On Wed, May 15, 2024

Re: Instructions by Machine

PS. Sorry, forgot to say. I had to install PTF PH39324 to get LFI recognized with OPTABLE(ZSA), which, from your post, seems to be what you're using (apologies for the noise if I misread it): https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/apar/PH39324

Re: Instructions by Machine

Mark, You may find that the LFI instruction is present on the machine. (I found it was present on our old EC12.) LFI is an extended opcode for IILF. If you use IILF, it will probably work. Regards, Emir Garza

Re: Instructions by Machine

Just my 2 cents but this makes sense. A few years ago, my company (actually lead developer at the time and I) decided that we would "standardize" on supported versions of IBM operating systems. z/SO 2.2 had just gone 'end of life' and (per Peter's reference) required z10 hardware so that became o
