Maximum number of central processors
The maximum number of CPs that can be defined depends on:
v The number of CPs that are available.
The maximum number of logical CPs available for definition in a single LP
is the
total number of CPs achievable via concurrent CPU upgrade, or 80, whichever is
less.

No. 64 CPs (any mixture of the various types, GP, zAAP & zIIP) is still
the limit per LPAR. So 2048 is the limit.
