Thanks to everyone for the replies. I carefully went thru my normal procedure everything went perfect. I like the HCD 2.5 panel which shows the HSA token like the D IOS,CONFIG command. Nice improvement.
I believe the root of my problem was, after building the new IOCDS, switching to it. Thanks again.

By design, the hardware tokens are always in sync whether the configuration is loaded via CPC ACTIVATE (POR) or Dynamic Activation. The only 'out-of-sync' condition you may experience is the hardware (CSS) token and the software (OS) which isn't really a token. These should both always be in sync following a POR for every LPAR on the CPC. Following a Dynamic Activation on any given LPAR, simply perform a corresponding 'software-only' dynamic activation of the same IODF on all other LPARs on that CPC. This will put the hardware and software configurations 'back in sync'. As an aside, if you make hardware-only changes and perform a dynamic activation, all the LPARs on the CPC function under that change without a corresponding 'software activation' being performed since it effects the hardware (CSS) which is global to the CPC. If you haven't made a change to the software (OS), the software-only activation is functionally unnecessary. In any event, be certain that all LPARs on the CPC have access to the dynamically activated IODF.
