I asked because "not excluded" is where the number comes from. I looked
at a 2nd CSS on one of our boxes and put a "P" next to it to show the

Radoslaw,

When you did it from the other machine was it a different device?. I'm just wondering (I'm not able to check right now) if the count is the total number of reachable images across ALL machines in the IODF.

I did the following test:
I took free (unconnected) CHPID in 2064 machine (z/900, single CSS)
I defined new CU, type 3990, directly connected to the chpid above. No other chpids, connections, no switches. CU number F000, unique. I defined 100 devices type 3390 in the CU. Dev number F000-F063 (100 consecutive addresses).
Udoubtly only on CPC is connected to the CU.

Then went to panel CBDPPRF0 (Processor List) and typed U in the action character area.
Got he following result:
 _ F000,100 3390             12 1  F000 ____
Number of IMages is 12 !!!
Number of OS configs is 1, which is correct.
12 is displayed for all devices except CFP (it's 13).
Number of LPARs defined is 7, including 2 CFs. Maximum available for z/900 is 15.

I wonder if the IODF is corrupt or more specifically the CPC/Partition entries. Have you tried creating a new IODF, and defining a new CPC/Part/Chp/CU/Device. Also you could use the HCD TRACE command to see if it contains any defects.. something like TRACE ON,ID=IODF, make sure your HCD trace dataset is big enough.

Cheers

Roy
