    Hello Takashi,

    Endevor does not offload any of its own processing to zIIP processors.

    Regards,

    IBM determines what can run on zIIP, as specified in their T&C at
    https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/authorized-use-table
    For Endevor there is very little processing that is zIIP eligible, and that
    won't change unless IBM allows greater use of zIIP. Remember that the
    reason zIIP exists is to host more cheaply the workloads which can run away
    from z/OS. IBM doesn't want to offer that price cut more widely, hence the
    restrictions on program usage.
