The ply to which I replied said "multi-CPU". LPAR is different.
Is z9 marketed in a single-CPU version? P390 or FLEX-ES may be
single-CPU, AFAIK.

Doesn't need to be multi-CPU; multi-task is bad enough. Who has
a single-CPU system nowadays, anyway?

I think you can still get single CPU systems on z9's, and z10's.
Assuming that by CPU you mean engines, and not CEC's or whatever
the current terms are.
But I don't see what this has to do with ENQ. ENQ doesn't care
how many CPU's there are. The scope is STEP, SYSTEM, or SYSTEMS.
None of these implies multiple CPU's, or single CPU's for that
matter. You can run multiple LPAR's on a single CPU, or have
an LPAR with multiple CPU's.
