Every CryptoExpress engine has two identifiers: PCHID and number used in
ICSF panels.
Both identifiers can be seen in SE.
PCHID number is not available in ICSF (why???)
However I'm wondering how the crypto numbers are assigned.
PCHID - it is determined by location of the card, as well as FICON or OSA.
However I observed two machines with same number of CryptoExpress cards,
same PCHID numbers for the cards, but different crypto number
assignments. Both machines are z15, ordered, delivered and installed
together. No difference in model, microcode, features like FC 3863...
Any clue?
