    Customer is evaluating the Db2 Analytics Accelerator and want to have more details on potential workload eligibility. He turned on modeling capabilities to evaluate workload for IDAA but did not get satisfactory results. They are in on IBM 2964 - z13 and orders are no longer allowed.

    Is there a trial they can play with on z13 in order to evaluate the product? If we got it correct, they require the 0104 Container Hosting Foundation for capability enablement, right?

    Hi Agnaldo, yes we can offer trial licenses up to 90 days, also on z13. The customer then can test the capabilities of the product. 
    The feature code 0104 is not required for z13 but for z14 and above. 

    More details on the feature code and all other pre-requisites are available here: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/713279


    I would also be interessted in the results of the workload modelling and why it wasn't successful. May I ask you to contact DWHZ@de.ibm.com with more details, so that we can analyze this assessment? Thanks in advance.
