    Mainframe hardware course: Mainframe’s processors z/OS Basic Skills: The mainframe’s processors Mainframe’s processors This hardware course introduces you to one model of IBM® mainframe computer, the IBM System z9™, to help you learn about the hardware parts that constitute the mainframe’s processor by comparing processing parts and functions to personal computers or notebooks. Time to complete: 10 - 15 minutes ¾The central processor complex ¾The multichip module ¾Memory cards ¾Input/output connections ¾The mainframe’s processing capacity © Copyright IBM Corp. 2006. All rights reserved. The central processor complex z/OS Basic Skills: The mainframe’s processors Mainframe’s processors > The central processor complex Mainframes have one or two metal frames that contain specialized cages, as well as other physical elements. This diagram shows the interior front view of an IBM System z9 Enterprise Class (z9 EC) model that has two frames. The z9 EC is slightly larger than a household refrigerator. The central processor complex, or CPC, resides in its own cage inside the mainframe, and consists of one to four book packages. Just like its personal-computer counterpart, the motherboard or system board, each book package consists of processors, memory, timers, and I/O connections. These collections of hardware parts are called “book packages” because you can slide them in or out of the CPC cage almost as easily as you can slide a book on or off a bookshelf. © Copyright IBM Corp. 2006. All rights reserved. z/OS Basic Skills: The mainframe’s processors Mainframe’s processors > The book package In the System z9, as well as earlier IBM mainframe models, the book package consists of three distinct areas, one each for: • The z9 EC's processors, which are inside one multichip module • Memory cards • Connections to input/output devices All of the book packages plug into a backplane in the z9 EC's frame.

  • Basic of Mainframe
    Basic of Mainframe Mainframe computer Mainframe is a very large and expensive computer capable of supporting hundreds, or even thousands, of users simultaneously. In the hierarchy that starts with a simple microprocessor at the bottom and moves to supercomputers at the top, mainframes are just below supercomputers. In some ways, mainframes are more powerful than supercomputers because they support more simultaneous programs. But supercomputers can execute a single program faster than a mainframe. The distinction between small mainframes and minicomputers is vague, depending really on how the manufacturer wants to market its machines. Modern mainframe computers have abilities not so much defined by their single task computational speed (usually defined as MIPS ² Millions of Instructions Per Second) as by their redundant internal engineering and resulting high reliability and security, extensive input- output facilities, strict backward compatibility with older software, and high utilization rates to support massive throughput. These machines often run for years without interruption, with repairs and hardware upgrades taking place during normal operation. Software upgrades are only non-disruptive when Parallel Sysplex is in place, with true workload sharing, so one system can take over another's application, while it is being refreshed. More recently, there are several IBM mainframe installations that have delivered over a decade of continuous business service as of 2007, with hardware upgrades not interrupting service. Mainframes are defined by high availability, one of the main reasons for their longevity, because they are typically used in applications where downtime would be costly or catastrophic. The term Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) is a defining characteristic of mainframe computers.
