Supported operating systems
IBM® Automatic Binary Optimizer
for z/OS® can be run on the
following operating systems:
- z/OS Version 2.5
- z/OS Version 2.4
- z/OS Version 2.3
- z/OS Version 2.2
For the operating system levels before z/OS 2.4, ABO requires some PTFs to be applied on the systems where Automatic Binary Optimizer for z/OS is installed and running. Other PTFs are required on systems where the ABO generated optimized modules will be running, even if ABO is not installed on these systems. APAR/PTF (OA47689/UA90982), which is available for z/OS 2.2 only, is required on systems where either ABO or the ABO generated modules are running.
These PTFs are required on systems where ABO is
running:
- z/OS V2.3
- OA55985/UA97356 (Binder)
- z/OS V2.2
- OA47829/UA78084 (Binder)
- OA50460/UA82866 (Binder)
- OA47689/UA90982 (IEFOPZxx SYS1.PARMLIB support)
- OA55985/UA97372 (Binder)
These PTFs are required on systems where ABO optimized
modules are running:
- z/OS V2.4
- z/OS V2.3
- PI84561/UI49013 (Language Environment Automatic Binary Optimizer Runtime Engine)1
- PH14705/UI64417 (Language Environment Automatic Binary Optimizer Runtime Engine)
- z/OS V2.2
- PI51546/UI33445 (Language Environment)
- PI51802/UI32944 (Language Environment CICS® system definition sample update)
- OA47689/UA90982 (IEFOPZxx SYS1.PARMLIB support)
- PH14705/UI64419 (Language Environment Automatic Binary Optimizer Runtime Engine)
Optional programs that can be used with
ABO:
- Application Delivery
Foundation for z/OS V3.2
- Developer for z/OS Enterprise Edition V14.2
- Debug for z/OS V14.2
- Fault Analyzer for z/OS V14.1.8
- Application Performance Analyzer for z/OS V14.2
It is highly recommended that the latest IBM Automatic Binary Optimizer or IBM Automatic Binary Optimizer Trial PTFs be installed. See the fix list and new features page.
Note:
- The PTF is included in the GA or GA PTF versions of z/OS 2.3 and z/OS 2.4 so is only required if running early release versions of these z/OS levels.
