So Hal indeed has an anomaly (unless z/OS.e is more VM like than I thought.) He shows 3 CPs enabled from the service element. I will be interested to see if it will be fixed with an IPL, deactivate/activate of the LPAR, or other solution. I wonder if work is actually being dispatched on the fourth logical CP. Speaking of terminology changes over the years, LPs = Logical Partitions in the PR/SM manual, not Logical Processors. What ever happened to LPAR? Good grief! I must not be part of the "trendy" mainframe crowd anymore. ; ) Steve -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ted MacNEIL Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2007 2:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Concurrent Upgrade Puzzlement. >If I have a CEC with 4 GP CPUs and 2 LPARS, LPAR1 has 4 non-dedicated initial >CPs and LPAR2 has 2 non-dedicated initial CPs, is not PRSM/LPAR virtualizing >CPs, since there 6 logical CPs, but only 4 physical CPs? Curiosity of course, >since I don't use VM. 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 ============================================================================== Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://www.credit-suisse.com/legal/en/disclaimer_email_ib.html ============================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
