z-synergy Services license rules
A z-synergy Services license is required for only the total physical capacity that is
logically configured as count key data (CKD) ranks for use with IBM Z host
systems.
Note:
If z/OS Distributed Data Backup is being used on a system with no CKD
ranks, a 10 TB z-synergy Services license must be ordered to enable the FICON
attachment functionality.
High Performance FICON for z Systems
High Performance FICON for z Systems (zHPF) is an enhancement to the IBM
FICON architecture to offload I/O management processing from the z Systems
channel subsystem to the DS8880 Host Adapter and controller.
