Library Server with new advanced search functions to help
users fi nd information “on demand.”
The Library Center offers easier navigation and new
advanced search features:

support both connected and disconnected handhelds
.
Integrated Testing
z/OS is system-integration tested using a production-like
environment. The z/OS environment includes subsystems,
such as CICS, IMS, DB2 and WebSphere. This additional
testing supplements existing functional tests, with a focus
on tasks performed by customers in the production environ-
ment, thus helping establishments move more quickly to
new functions.
