Like All the guys say. It should not be an issue with most vendors. And its relatively ease to configure a CPU ON/OFF. However Vanguard checks for the number of processors for the LIC. If you go from a 507 to a 508 then you would have to obtain another lic key. Please check with all your Vendors if the keys changes when CPU's are added or removed.

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?
