Abstract

The equipment that comprises the IBM 9020 multiprocessing system is described, emphasizing capabilities not appearing in the standard SYSTEM/360 line. System characteristics are related to availability requirement for program-controlled reconfiguration capabilities. With these capabilities, subsystem can be formed from system elememts as the need arises. Other discussed funtional capabilities center on recovery by program control, shared storage, and malfunction alerting.
