As usual, it depends. It depends on configurations and why you have them the
way you do. In our environment, we want to be highly-available. To us, that is
multiple CECs, cross-configurations, DB2 data sharing, etc. and we can lose a
whole CEC and keep on trucking, albeit at a lower total capacity. Add in GDPS
to a secondary data center with CBU and we are near fault tolerant!
Granted, we pay a premium for the 2nd CEC, but there are no single points of
failure. With one CEC, there is still a remote possibility of a single point of
failure. Remote, but possible.
I believe Robert was inquiring about the number of logical CPs defined
for each LPAR on any CPC. Put another way, on any given CPC (regardless
of the total number of CPCs you run), do you set the number of logical
CPs for any of your LPARs equal to the number of physical CPs available?
