Software Requirements
Full use of all functions requires:
- z/VM® 7.3.
- z/CMS Level 28, which is shipped with z/VM 6.4. The z/Architecture® mode provided by z/CMS is required by Performance Toolkit to exploit the 64-bit addressing mode. The latter is used to effectively eliminate the virtual storage shortage issue.
- A supported level of the Graphical Data Display Manager program (GDDM®, 5684-007 or 5684-168)1
1 GDDM
libraries are a prerequisite only for the special graphics displays
of the performance monitor part of Performance Toolkit; they
are not required for any of the other functions. Note that graphics
can be displayed using the Performance Toolkit's WWW capabilities without the
need for GDDM.
