EMC's RSA product SecurID, which some of your networks almost certainly use,
has been hacked. An APT has, that is, been directed at RSA. What exactly has
been compromised is unclear. RSA may not know; and even if it does it is,
understandably, reluctant to say much.

Is there any downside to running zAAP on zIIPs versus all zAAPs *if* there is
no current appreciable zIIP workload present?
Planning for a z196 and the thought is "why not get zIIPs now and if zIIP

to zAAPS.

I would buy zIIPs instead of zAAPs, however, AFAIK zAAP on zIIP doesn't work if
any zAAPs are available.

Is any one running zOS1.8 on a z196? It's on z9s now. Will it even run
on a z196?
I know it's unsupported. We've got some neglected LPARs that suddenly a
z196 looks attractive.
Thanks,

I think the main point is acquiring the zIIPs with the machine avoids that

Thank you to all that responded.
To summarize, several of you think it is a good idea, with the only downside

Phil,
If memory serves me correctly, you need an ALIAS for the second entry point.
Or, you need to link it under the second entry name, naming the secondary entry
point as the entry.

In no way does a major node *qualify* a minor node.

Instead of messing with the binder control cards you can specify the COBOL
compile option NAME(ALIAS) (which, in fact, adds the relevant binder control
cards).
"If you specify NAME(ALIAS), and your program contains ENTRY statements, a
link-edit ALIAS card is generated for each ENTRY statement."
CALL needs to be an ALIAS to DCALLEE when you do the binding (LKED step).
Do you use the NAME(ALIAS) compiler option? You either need that or put in an
ALIAS CALL command in your link step.
