Sam,

I came across this the other week after an upgrade. Our problem was that on the image profile we had "Initial processors" set to 16 and then "Reserved" set to 1, total 17 thus blowing the 16 limit, we set the reserved to 0 and all was ok..Check you image profiles

Hi,

Well I should have known this from reading the z/OR R6
presentation/publications and probably would heard a reminder from some sage
at SHARE if I had not spent the SHARE week confined to a room taking
antibiotics:-(   IBM also missed it in a systems assurance so we upgraded a
2084 that was still running only z/OS R4 images from a 2084-318 to a
2084-319 and bought ourselves a big paperweight.  For those taking off your
shoes and socks to count up it has 1 ICF and 2 IFLs too.

For your entertainment Item BDC000032489 from IBMLink describes a similar
scenario. It's not currently listed in any way I can find in the 2084DEVICE
PSP bucket.   OW57714 provides a new wait state.

 4) New Wait state code WAIT07C RSN03 RC03 is loaded if an
     attempt is made to IPL the System in a logical Partition
     with a CPU Address greater than x'F'. The Level of z/OS
     installed on this System does not support more than 16 CPs
     including reserved CPs.


I don't know of any way around it save downgrade to the previous
configuration or use dedicated CP's as we are doing temporarily till we get
a LIC diskette to change the 319 back into a 318.  I knew that z/OS R4 could
not use more than 16 CP's but I didn't know that it could not use shared
CP's on a CEC which had more than 16.   IBM Service Level 2 support was
unable to suggest any other procedure so that's what we are doing.

I SHARE my pain so you can avoid the same.  Maybe this will make more sense
after I get some sleep and reread the documentation.

        Best Regards,
