Yes. When you request to add capacity on the HMC you are presented with a list of all increments from your base up to the maximum CoD.
Last year we made our 509 a 510, then a 512 and back to a 511.

That means I can temporarily upgrade it do 712 (up to 100% actually, 712 is <100%, nevermind). Of course the more CPs activated the more money is to paid. On resourcelink I generate an Order - electronic record. I specify order details - how many MSU I want to add. I choose one of listed values, minimum is single CP, maximum is last value below 100%. Let's say I've chosen model 710 - 4 cp's more than permanently. Now the question: is it possible to order 4-CP worth Order and then activate it partially? The following scenarion comes to mind: I ordered 4 CPs due to money limits. In case of need I activated one CP of the 4 in the Order. Then - if it's still to little - I activate another one, etc. To be honest I did it once, many years ago, and I added then 18 CPs, however I didn't have to pay for it ;-) -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
