Re: IOCDS Question
Hal The current active IOCDS is a bit of a misnomer. It refers to that fact that it will be the default IOCDS used for the next POR. You always have to set it manually. The important thing to remember is that the IOCDS is totally separate from the IODF and dynamic actvate processing. Although it is normal practise to update it at the same time as you do you Activate, it is ONLY ever used during a POR. All you need to do is update the profile on HMC , or do a ACTIVATE ACTIOCDS=Ax from the z/OS console.

I don't have a clue to help Hal, but I know you can update an active IOCDS via HCD. I did that a few weeks ago and generated an out-of-sync condition for myself. This last POR cleared it up, but it was interesting that I couldn't dynamically activate the IOCDS. I probably could have backed up a version and then re-activated, but I would have ended up blowing away some active devices (consoles) and didn't want to deal with that. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: IOCDS question
As far as I remember no change to IODF/IOCDS. From the HMC you need to re-customize the LPAR activation profiles to specify the number of initial processors for each LPAR. We are running a 2064-003 and the last time we turned on an additional engine we had to deactivate and reactivate the LPARs so that the added engine will come online automatically after the IPL.

Re: IOCDS question
... My question is, are there any changes the the IOCDS I need to make when we add this 4th engine? ... No. Just to the LPAR profiles, and only for the next re-start of each profile. That is, if you defined the LPARs with RESERVED CPs. Also, you may want to review your weights. -teD (The secret to success is sincerity.

Re: IOCDS question
We added a 3rd engine to our Z800 and there where no changes to the IOCDS plus no changes to the serial #. The only changes that were done, like Ted said were done to the LPAR profiles. No weights were affected.
