CICS VSAM Recovery for z/OS and IBM z14 compatibility

Question & Answer

Question

When upgrading my hardware to an IBM z14 mainframe, are there any known problems or PTFs I need to apply for IBM CICS VSAM Recovery for z/OS (CICS VR) V5.1 and V5.2?

Answer

There are no known problems or compatibility PTFs required to run IBM CICS VSAM Recovery for z/OS 5.1 or 5.2 on a z14.

I would recommend that you review the following items:

The z14 PSP buckets for UPGRADE 3906DEVICE and SUBSET 3906/ZOS
The IBM Fix Categories for z14
The Software Product Compatibility Reports (Click the "Detailed System Requirements" link in the left nav, enter the Full or partial product name for the products you are using ...), and review the "Hardware" tab for z/OS

I would also recommend bookmarking the following topic on General recommendations and considerations for a z14 server .
