Hi All,

In continuation of these 50 years of innovation and evolution, IBM is pleased to announce a new z/VSE version, z/VSE V6.1.

Whereas the past z/VSE versions often addressed scalability and constraint relief, z/VSE V6.1 now focuses on online transaction processing, security, and networking:
- z/VSE V6.1 delivers CICS Transaction Server (CICS TS) for z/VSE V2.1 to help clients protect their investments in online environments.
- IPv6/VSE V1.2 and TCP/IP for z/VSE V2.1 address clients' high demands on secure networking.

z/VSE 6.1 including CICS TS for z/VSE 2.1 and the new TCP/IP releases can be ordered now !

z/VSE 6.1 is planned to be available on November 27, 2015. It can run on IBM z10, z114, z196, zBC12, zEC12 and z13.

z/VSE 6.1 requires an initial installation. Fast Service Upgrade (FSU) from z/VSE V5 is not supported. However, we introduce a new Migration Price Option (MPO) for z/VSE 6.1, which gives better pricing during the migration compared to Single Version Charging (SVC) of up to 18 month.

For more information, please see http://ibm.com/zvse
There you will also find a link to the announcement letter.

Kind regards,
Ingo Franzki, IBM
