• Machine Type 3931 (M/T 3931) Model A01, which is identified as IBM z16 Model A01.
  
• Machine Type 3932 (M/T 3932) Models A02 and AGZ, which are identified as IBM z16 Model A02 and IBM z16 Model AGZ.
  
• Machine Type 8561 (M/T 8561) Model T01, which is identified as IBM z15 Model T01.
  
• Machine Type 8562 (M/T 8562) Model T02, which is identified as IBM z15 model T02.
  
• Machine Type 9175 (M/T 9175) Model ME1, which is identified as IBM z17 model ME1.
