Even though the z10 processor has on-die facilities for symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), there is a dedicated companion chip called the SMP Hub Chip or Storage Control (SC) that adds 24 MB off-die L3 cache and lets it communicate with other z10 processors and Hub Chips at 48 GB/s. The Hub Chip consists of 1.6 billion transistors and measures 20 ...
IBM System z10 is a line of IBM mainframes. The z10 Enterprise Class (EC) was announced on February 26, 2008. On October 21, 2008, IBM announced the z10 Business Class (BC), a scaled-down version of the z10 EC. The System z10 represents the first model family powered by the z10 quad core processing engine.
IBM System z10. This generation of Z servers supported more memory than previous generation systems and can have up to 64 central processors (CPs) per frame. The full speed z10 processor's uniprocessor performance was up to 62% faster than that of the z9 server, according to IBM's z10 announcement, and included these other features:
IBM described MVPG as "moves a single page and the central processor cannot execute any other instructions until the page move is completed." [ 25 ] The MVPG mainframe instruction [ 26 ] ( M o V e P a G e, opcode X'B254') has been compared to the MVCL ( M o V e C haracter L ong) instruction, both of which can move more than 256 bytes within ...

An IBM System Z10 mainframe computer on which z/OS can run. z/OS is a 64-bit operating system for IBM z/Architecture mainframes, introduced by IBM in October 2000. [2] It derives from and is the successor to OS/390, which in turn was preceded by a string of MVS versions.
The first z9 BCs began shipping on May 26, 2006. The z9 BC supports up to seven main processors (plus a dozen or more secondary processors). While the z9 BC can provide general purpose central processors (CPs), IBM is actively marketing the use of low cost specialty processors such as IFLs, zAAPs, and the new zIIPs. (Every z9 BC can support at ...
