If you want to control the value, you need to do an implicit SET CPUID at some other point in time, such as when the CPU is created. It's interesting that it's working perfectly on a z/VM 4.4 system since according to the notations in the code, it was added in z/VM 4.3! Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
