Terminology error on my part. What I meant was: Unlike VM, no single LPAR can have more logical CPs than there are physical CP's on the CEC. So, if you have 4 GP's, no LPAR can have more than 4 CP's defined to it. (You can, however, have RSVD CP's defined, so that you can add more LP's, if you dynamically add more GP's, without a POR or an IPL) It's been awhile, but VM used to allow a guest more 'active' CP's than were physically installed. This is what I meant by virtualisation of CP's. The terminology definitions have drifted in meaning over the last 20 years. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
