Since you are using DIRMAINT, it knows where to put the CPU statements.
 The MACHINE statement defines the maximum you can define dynamically, but
you always get the number of CPUs defined by CPU statements.  Since you
have only 1 guest that needs 4 CPUs, don't define them in the profile, but
define them in that guest.  However, it does not hurt to increase the
maximum number in the profile so that you can dynamically add CPUs to other
guests if you find they need more.

Enter these commands:
DIRM FOR LINDFLT SETMACH ESA 4
DIRM FOR GUEST_X SETCPU 0 BASE
DIRM FOR GUEST_X SETCPU 1
DIRM FOR GUEST_X SETCPU 2
DIRM FOR GUEST_X SETCPU 3
