Re: Does adding real storage require an IPL?

2020-06-26 Thread R.S.

Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance.

Let's start from scratch or from CPC Activate process.
Now it is good moment to properly define LPARs. First, give reserved 
memory to each one. It is just a definition, it is clause like "I expect 
I will add memory in the future".
And when your system is running the LPAR memory is able to grow up. Your 
z/OS is also able to get more memory without reIPL. Just use system 
command. Of course some free (unasssigned) memory must exist in the CPC 
- that's quite obvious: you cannot add and use nonexistend memory.

Sources of free memory?
Examples:
1. Planning. Assuming you have 1024GB memory and you assigned 768GB to 
LPARs. So you have 256GB unassigned memory. Available for use.
2. Deactivated LPAR. You deactivated LPAR A - and now the memory from 
this LPAR is free now. You can add it to another LPAR.
3. Microcode upgrade. You purchased and "unblocked" existing physical 
memory within ypur CPC.
4. Hardware physical upgrade - possible for some multi-BOOK or 
multi-DRAWER configurations. Or just another book/drawer is added to CPC.


Regarding to the question, I repeat: in order to add memory to the LPAR 
without deac/act you have to define the LPAR with reserved memory.

Probably you added some memory to LPAR profile, but this is not an LPAR
itself. It is LPAR definition which is used during LPAR activation. For
active LPAR it has no meaning. To compare: it is like change in JES2PARM
member after JES2 is started.

BTW: LPAR definition may contain more memory that is actually available.
For example you may have 1024GB memory, define 10 LPARs and "assign"
256GB to each LPAR. It will be accepted by the system with no error or
warning msg. However durin system activation (IML) only few of defined
LPAR will be activated correctly. Remaining LPARs will not be activated
due to lack of memory which is described in messages.

I don't understand details, so my answer is rather general:
1. LPAR can be defined with memory and "reserved" memory. That means it
is possible to get more memory than assingned during LPAR activation
(usually IML process).
2. OS may or may not support dynamic memory change. z/OS does support
it. So, it is possible to dynamically add memory to the system.
Assumpions are: LPAR definition as described above *and* free
(unassigned) storage in CPC. Free storage may come from deactivated
(other) LPAR.
3. It is also possible to buy memory without physical deactivation of
CPC. It is memory which is already inside the CPC, but microcode will
enable it for user. It can be done dynamically, and new memory will
appear as unassigned to any LPAR. Then you can add it do a system as
described above.
4. Amount of "memory for sale" within CPC depend on many factors. As far
as I know IBM want to disable this option ("preplanned memory"), however
AFAIK it is still possible to get a little bit more than ordered and the
gap can be bought and enabled.

Personally I always define LPARs with reserved memory just to have
option to for future unknown need. And I had cases when I really needed
additional memory.

That is exactly how it works: in the activation profile you specify the memory 
and reserved memory for an LPAR. That is all it will see after activation with 
that profile.

Subject: Re: Does adding real storage require an IPL?

Hi Charles,

Changing the image profile requires a deactivation and reactivation of
the LPAR, so if the LPAR isn't already defined to allow dynamic storage
reconfiguration, you will need one IPL to get to the new state where it
is.  The manual for this is the PR/SM Planning Guide, which has a good
discussion of the basics.

As Dave says, if the profile already has the storage available, CF STOR
will work dynamically.

When storage was more expensive, we had some Reserved storage as well as
the Initial to allow for CF STOR(E=1) to move it from one test LPAR to
another (overnight).   Now we just have a single much larger Initial
setting and avoid the movement of storage between LPARs (i.e. CF STOR
OFFLINE in the donor and ONLINE in the recipient), which was sometimes
delayed by tasks holding storage intended to be reallocated.

best regards,
Peter

Re: Does adding real storage require an IPL?

2020-06-22 Thread Charles Mills
Well, in what was apparently a bit of a miscommunication, the box owners IPLed 
our LPAR, so the issue is now moot. But the storage is there!

Thanks all,

Charles

Today is real storage day. Sorry for the elementary questions.

The folks that own the box as a whole have added memory to our LPAR. Do we need 
to IPL to pick that up in z/OS, or is there a command or similar process? I 
thought I heard at a SHARE presentation that it could be done dynamically, but 
the box owners are telling us an IPL is required.

PR/SM, not VM, if that matters.

Thanks much!

No.  Might have to add it to the image profile on the HMC, and if already 
there, then a CONFIG command on the console.
