No. The term "processor" here is a bit misleading. In this case, "processor" is used to reflect a single physical system. An IOCDS contains the IO definition for a physical system. The physical system or LPAR may have more than one CPU. Most physical systems support about 5 IOCDSes (depends on the processor model and microcode level). You generally cycle through them so as not to overwrite a known working configuration. You can activate a different one from the HMC at a POR. It is possible to change them dynamically, but that's more complicated than can be covered in a short note. Read the IOCP manuals for details on how to set up dynamic IOCP changes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
