The IBM Automatic Binary Optimizer for z/OS, V1.2 documentation is refreshed today, updates include:

• Introduces the Installation Verification Program (IVP), BOZJIVP, which enables you to verify that the optimizer is installed correctly and is functional. IVP is delivered via PTF for APAR PI77901. See https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSERQD_1.2.0/com.ibm.opt.doc/ug/ivp.html.
• Adds information on the ABO optimization process requiring significantly more time and memory compared to the original compilation process when using Enterprise COBOL V4 and earlier. See https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSERQD_1.2.0/com.ibm.opt.doc/ug/memory.html.
• Adds information on the input instructions section (in the listing transform), which contains the complete list of instructions for the CSECT being optimized. See https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSERQD_1.2.0/com.ibm.opt.doc/ug/listingtrans.html.

PDF version of the User's Guide is also updated and available at http://publibfp.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/c2785453.pdf.
