Thats not quite true. You have memory tied up in the Lpar definition, unless you can define it to use shared memory. If the LPAR is de-activated, the memory doesn't count. The problem can be: ES/9000, 9672, and prior you can have the LPAR's come up de-activated at POR. Our experience (3 years

Hi Rob, Can you get rid of the duplicates? You could do that with SORT and then do the match on that files with duplicates removed? Not intuitive but it might actually be faster than processing once with a user written program and no code to manage only utility statements. Best

or you could load it to DB2 and use SQL to get the cartesian join (the SQL people get excited about calling a many to many merge by different names) select tab1col1, tab1col2, tab2col2 from input1 inner join input2 on tab1col2 = tab2col1. The cartesian join will match duplicate keys from either

Control over activation of every defined LPAR has been available in the 'RESET' or POR profile since the first 9672 of the mid 90s. A trap that's easy to fall into, whenever customizing or editing the POR profile, is the HMC's generous offer to synchronize the activation set with the list of
