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 ago), with z/900's they always came active and that caused a lot of issues (extra partitions defined for GDPS) until we automated the interface to the HMC. I have had no direct experience with later ones, since I'm more hands off than I used to be. Also, we don't have 'spare' LPARs defined. - -teD O-KAY! BLUE! JAYS! Let's PLAY!
