Gary,
        That's great information, thanks. We are not doing loads on activates. 
We do all the activates and then loads. We are trying to stress hardware with 
this test. Looks like we'll have to go a different direction. 


Thanks,

Chris,

Peter Relson or John Eels might be able to shed more light on this, however, 
"tuning a sysplex to allow 15 images to IPL directly into the same PLEX at the 
same time" may be a technically impossible goal with current model software and 
hardware.

And as far as I am aware, the HMC doesn't have a "wait x seconds before loading 
upon activation of a reset profile" so having them all auto-load after a POR or 
activation of the CEC probably isn't going to get you the results you seek.  At 
best, I'd expect two to enter the PLEX, one to go to "la la land", and the 
other 12 to wait state.  YMMV.

That's a difficult and worthy goal you've selected.  I wish you the best of 
luck with it!

Thanks Gary that is excellent information. We are actually a test lab and we 
are trying to IPL 15 LPARs at one shot. At this point we have not be able to 
get them all up in a sysplex environment. I am trying to figure the best way to 
tune the sysplex to make that happen. 


Thanks,
