Thanks, Alan. If I understand you right you're going with the old systems programmer Standard Reply #1, "It depends."
Which is pretty much what we thought .

We also turned a 703 into a 603, no issues. Are your HMC IMAGE profiles defined with reserved engines? That's a requirement. After they get done just CF CPU(xx),ONLINE. As to the ISVs, we notified them. Some products care about the MSUs/MIPS, some care about model numbers, some only care about serial numbers. Some vendors thanked us and updated their records, some sent us new product keys.

IBM assures us that their stuff will work. Since we have the two engines in reserve our understanding is that we can simply configure them online without an IPL or Activate. My question is in two parts. Has anyone done this and were there any issues with third party products?
