    ICP IOCP VERSION 5 RELEASE 3 LEVEL 0 (5.3.0) provides the
    following support:
      - Support for Coupling Express LR channel paths (TYPE=CL5).
        The 2965 and 2964 central processor complexes (CPCs)
        support CL5 channel paths at the EC levels listed below.
      - A maximum of 128 coupling channel paths (TYPE=CIB, CL5,
        CS5, and ICP) are allowed to access a logical partition
        on 2965 and 2964 CPCs.  These CPCs continue to support a
        maximum of 256 coupling channel paths for the CPC.

    *
    Documentation Changes:
    There will be a new publication "Input/Output Configuration
    Program User's Guide for ICP IOCP" which has order number
    SB10-7172-00.  The publication is available using Resource
    Link at http://www.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink by selecting
    section:
    Library > z13
    Library > z13s
    *
    EC (Engineering Change) Information:
    This PTF level of ICP IOCP contains support for IBM z13s and
    IBM z13 central processor complexes (CPCs).
    See Usage Notes for further information.
    *
    Information on equivalent STAND-ALONE IOCP, z/OS IOCP, z/VM
    IOCP, and z/VSE IOCP follows:
    *
    *
      - Equivalent STAND-ALONE IOCP for ICP IOCP version 5.3.0 is
        in the listed EC's (with MCLs).  The EC's listed are the
        first levels shipped with this release of IOCP.
            EC       MACHINE TYPE
          P00339.314     2964     (Note 1)
          P00339.314     2965     (Note 1)
    *
        Note 1: This is EC P00339 with LIC patch MCL314 installed.
                Your CPC must also have EC P00339.328 installed for
                the CPC to support CL5 channels.  See the APAR
                record for the updated information on or before
                September 13, 2017.
    *
      - Equivalent z/OS, z/VM, and z/VSE IOCP is shipped via the
        listed APARs.
          OPERATING SYSTEM       APAR
               z/OS            OA51111
               z/VM            VM65880
               z/VSE           N/A (see DY47686, DY47687)
    *
    *
    The EC level of the CPC can be determined from the Hardware
    Management Console or Support Element by doing the following:
      1. From Navigation pane, select 'Systems Management' on
         HMC or 'System Management' on Support Element.
      2. Select 'Systems' on HMC.
      3. Select the CPC you are interested in.
      4. Expand the 'Change Management' tasks area.
      5. Open 'System Information' in the 'Change Management'
         tasks area and look for Description 'SE Framework'
         to identify the appropriate EC level.
    *
    The STAND-ALONE IOCP version and release can be determined by
    looking at the header lines of the IOCP reports produced by
    STAND-ALONE IOCP.  The STAND-ALONE IOCP version and release can
    also be found in IOCP message ICP073I in an I/O Configuration
    Source file that was processed by STAND-ALONE IOCP.  The
    STAND-ALONE IOCP version and release can also be determined
    from the Hardware Management Console or Support Element by
    doing the following (begin with step 6 for the Support Element
    Console):
      1. Select 'Systems Management' from Navigation pane.
      2. Select 'Systems'.
      3. Select the CPC you are interested in.
      4. Expand the 'Recovery' tasks area.
      5. Open 'Single Object Operations' in the 'Recovery'
         tasks area to connect to the Support Element.
      6. Select 'System Management' from Navigation pane.
      7. Select the CPC or an activated partition.  (Note that
         an activated partition is required to write an IOCDS.)
      8. Expand 'Configuration' from the tasks area.
      9. Open 'Input/output (I/O) Configuration' in the
         'Configuration' tasks area.
      10. Select 'View' pull-down.
      11. Select 'Configuration Program Level'.

    Usage Notes:
    1. If you are currently using a release of ICP IOCP and you do
       not plan on upgrading to the listed MCL level, you
       can still install this PTF and replace your existing ICP
       IOCP.  The 2084, 2086, 2094, 2096, 2097, 2098, 2817, 2818,
       2827, 2828, 2964, and 2965 models can power-on reset with an
       IOCDS written by the ICP IOCP shipped by this PTF.  Also, the
       2084, 2086, 2094, 2096, 2097, 2098, 2817, 2818, 2827, 2828,
       2964, and 2965 models can still power-on reset with an IOCDS
       that was written by your previous release of ICP IOCP.  There
       is no requirement that you write an IOCDS with the ICP IOCP
       shipped by this PTF and perform a power-on reset after the
       PTF has been installed.
    2. If you have a 2964 or 2965 model and install the listed MCL
       level, IBM recommends installing this PTF.
    3. Any IOCDS previously created by an ICP version of IOCP
       (z/OS, VM, VSE, or STAND-ALONE) can be reported on by the
       ICP version of IOCP shipped by this PTF.
    4. Any IOCDS previously created by another version of IOCP
       (e.g. IYP IOCP) cannot be reported on by the ICP version of
       IOCP shipped by this PTF or by the STAND-ALONE equivalent
       version of the ICP IOCP program.  (For HCD users, HCD manages
       the correlation of IOCP versions to CPC model for you.)
    5. If you are upgrading to a 2964 or 2965 model, you must
       power-on reset with an IOCDS written for the 2964 or 2965.
       Following an upgrade, you cannot power-on reset with an IOCDS
       that was written for the prior CPC unless the 2964 or 2965
       IOCDS was written in preparation of an upgrade.
    6. Although IOCP provides support for IXP IOCP (3090, 9021,
       9121, and 9221 only), IZP IOCP (2003, 3000, 7060, 9021,
       9121, 9672, and 9674 only), and IYP IOCP (2064 and 2066),
       these programs are not affected by this PTF.  Also, the
       IOP program option for IOP IOCP (3090 only) is no longer
       supported and will be reused at some point in the future
       for a new processor.
