In order for MVS to bring a new CPU online, it must be in the configuration ("Reserved"?) when the guest IPLs (as it is in an LPAR activation profile). CP does not virtualize this processor state. The "max CPUs" specification on MACHINE is just an authorization mechanism rather than a virtual machine architectural attribute. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
