Is InterPel compatible with IBM z14 (z/Os 2.1 and 2.2)

Problem

Is InterPel compatible with IBM z14 (z/Os 2.1 and 2.2)


System migrating from IBM z12 to a z14


Recommended z14 service IBM.Device.Server.z14-3906.* installed over z/OS 2.1



Is there any known issue with InterPel 7.3.2 when on a z14 machine?



Resolution


For this level of hardware and OS, ensure to run the latest SP+patch (7.3.2 SP5 + the patch Q04354A)

The patch 'Q04354A' is delivered as an ADRDSSU + Xmit.


It includes the module PELDYNTB, ensure to secure a copy of the existing module before replacing it in case a roll-back is needed.


This patch fix the ABEND 0C4 on commands (STARTX, LOOPX, etc..)


This patch also fix the spin loop issue reported when Z13 or higher (z/os 2.1 and higher)
