Hi Ron, You can set both CPU and model. CPU serial can be set with a command or within the directory entry for the guest. If you also want to set the CPU model you need to modify the storage address within the VMDBK that contains the CPU model for a guest. But some products query the model in a different way so it might not always work. We use this to run a zOS or VM guest on different model hardware (z9 or z890 in DR on z10).

Do not know if this is place to ask.... Is there a way to tell VM that I am going to run a image(Linux or zos) under a different machine/serial/model # than what I am really on?? looking at doing it for a DR possibility where it is a PAIN to get auth codes.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Email Disclaimer This E-mail contains confidential information belonging to the sender, which may be legally privileged information.
