    With ziiP enabled for MainView CICS, 50% of our code will be offloaded to ziiP.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because ziiP (z Integrated Information Processor) is a feature of IBM z Systems mainframes that offloads certain workloads to a specialized processor. It does not offload a specific percentage of code, but rather offloads specific types of workloads, such as Java and XML processing. Therefore, it is incorrect to say that 50% of our code will be offloaded to ziiP with ziiP enabled for MainView CICS.
