Coupling links that are defined as CS5, CIB, or ICP
HiperSockets that are defined as IQD
The following features are exclusively plugged into a PCIe I/O drawer and do not require the
definition of a CHPID and CHPID type:
Each Crypto Express feature occupies one I/O slot, but does not have a CHPID type.
However, logical partitions (LPARs) in all CSSs have access to the features. Each Crypto
Express adapter can be defined to up to 40 LPARs.
Each Flash Express feature occupies two I/O slots, but does not have a CHPID type.
However, LPARs in all CSSs have access to the features. The Flash Express feature can
be defined to up to 40 LPARs.
Each RoCE feature occupies one I/O slot, but does not have a CHPID type. However,
LPARs in all CSSs have access to the feature. The RoCE feature can be defined to up to
31 LPARs.
Each zEDC feature occupies one I/O slot, but does not have a CHPID type. However,
LPARs in all CSSs have access to the feature. The zEDC feature can be defined to up to
15 LPARs.
I/O feature cables and connectors
The IBM Facilities Cabling Services fiber transport system offers a total cable solution service
to help with cable ordering requirements. These services can include the requirements for all
of the protocols and media types that are supported (for example, FICON, coupling links, and
OSA). The services can help whether the focus is the data center, a SAN, a LAN, or the
end-to-end enterprise.
Cables: All fiber optic cables, cable planning, labeling, and installation are client
responsibilities for new z13s installations and upgrades. Fiber optic conversion kits and
mode conditioning patch cables cannot be ordered as features on z13s servers. All other
cables must be sourced separately.
The Enterprise Fiber Cabling Services use a proven modular cabling system, the fiber
transport system (FTS), which includes trunk cables, zone cabinets, and panels for servers,
directors, and storage devices. FTS supports Fiber Quick Connect (FQC), a fiber harness
that is integrated in the frame of a z13s server for quick connection. The FQC is offered as a
feature on z13s servers for connection to FICON LX channels.
Whether you choose a packaged service or a custom service, high-quality components are
used to facilitate moves, additions, and changes in the enterprise to prevent having to extend
the maintenance window.
Table 4-8 lists the required connector and cable type for each I/O feature on the z13s server.

There is a new parameter for HiperSockes IOCP definitions on z13. As such, the z13 IOCP definitions need to be
migrated to support the HiperSockets definitions (CHPID type IQD). On z13, the CHPID statement of HiperSockets
devices requires the keyword VCHID. VCHID specifies the virtual channel identification number associated with the
channel path. Valid range is 7E0 - 7FF. VCHID is not valid on z Systems before z13.
