From: Romanowski, John (OFT) Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 3:28 PM To: 'The IBM z/VM Operating System' Subject: RE: Bringing CPU/Engine Online For some explanations Do HELP CPQUERY PROC and HELP CPQUERY CPUS You're querying apples and oranges or in this case the virtual cpus of the userid you're logged onto (q v cpus) and the real cpus of the machine running z/VM (q proc expand). And the pears belong to the zlinux guest that has a pair of virtual cpus. 'Alternate' is a real processor, "a nondedicated processor other than the master". the 2nd real processor is already active. there are 2 virtual cpus defined to the zlinux userid which probably isn't the userid on which you ran 'q v cpus' From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of Daniel Tate Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 3:13 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: Bringing CPU/Engine Online Im a Unix admin trying to speak z/VM here.. so please bear with me.. q v cpus 13:04:09 CPU 00 ID FF0ECDEE20948000 (BASE) IFL CPUAFF ON q proc expand 13:10:16 PROCESSOR 00 MASTER IFL 13:10:16 PROCESSOR 01 ALTERNATE IFL 13:10:16 PARTITION MODE LINUX-ONLY 1) What does "Alternate" indicate? and 2) How do i get that 2nd processor to be "active" if it is not already.. i.e. showing up under q v cpus and active under z/Linux? z/Linux shows two virtual CPUs under /sys/devices/system/cpu and /proc/cpuinfo displays: vendor_id : IBM/S390 # processors : 2 bogomips per cpu: 6868.00 features : esan3 zarch stfle msa ldisp eimm dfp processor 0: version = FF, identification = 0ECDEE, machine = 2094 processor 1: version = FF, identification = 0ECDEE, machine = 2094 Thanks in advance. ________________________________ This e-mail, including any attachments, may be confidential, privileged or otherwise legally protected.
