CA Common Services for CA WA CA 7 Edition › zIIP Enablement Service

zIIP Enablement Service

The zIIP Enablement Service supplies low-level routines to let specific tasks become zIIP-enabled. These tasks are eligible to execute on a zIIP processor. This offloading lets other work execute on the main CP processors while CA WA CA 7 Edition code executes on the zIIP processor. Although there is some overhead in setting up to use zIIP processors, moving CA WA CA 7 Edition processing to zIIP usually decreases overall costs. This service is required when you specify ZIIP=YES on the INIT initialization statement.

This service is required when you plan to offload certain CA 7 subtasks onto a zIIP processor.

Note: This feature requires CA Common Services v14 or higher.
