Jerry,
Based upon what you are trying to do, I suggest the following:
Make the total weights for LPARs 1, 2, 3, and 4 add up to 1000, assuming all
four are normally active. Then you can easily do the math and for example,
give LPAR 2 say 15% of the machine by setting its weight to 150 (15/1000
Jerry,
MSU settings (LPAR or group) are enforced by software. LPAR weights (LPAR
level only) and absolute capping (at the LPAR or group level) are enforced by
the hardware/firmware itself.
Weights apply only to active LPARs and control the LPAR's portion of shared
processors. In your examp
To display the PSW, you need to use the "display / alter" task; there is a
selection in that task to display the PSW.

Unfortunately, the HMC System Monitor App is confusing in that the list of
monitors contains items available only when the system is running in Dynamic
Partition Mode (DPM) as well as in the non-DPM mode and the helps do not
explain this.
I am assuming that none of your systems are running in
I want to add to my previous append and that is to recommend that user ids not
be shared. In my personal opinion, that is probably why it is not a good idea
to use the IBM-supplied userids. Not that they are insecure in and of
themselves, but that people using them probably also share them and
Thank you for your positive feedback. Both in liking many of the new
improvements in 2.14 and in reporting your success using FTP.
I don't have an official recommendation. But, in my personal opinion, I don't
think you need to disable or delete the IBM-supplied userids on the SE or the
HMC.
With the HMC 2.14 level, all FTP (and FTPS/SFTP) operations that originate in
the SE really proxy thru an HMC. The HMC must have the SE defined into it and
it. This means that uou need to make sure that at least one HMC can get to the
FTP server that the SE wants to access. These are the only
hostile
HMC. Any HMC that is at a level equal to or higher than an SE and that can see
the SE can define it in. If you want to keep things more isolated, then as you

use the HMC's media. And it has been supported for a number of generations
now.

The SE and HMC offer a task to view the temperature, system power consumption,

"Environmental Efficiency Statistics" task. The data can be viewed on various

This only works for z14 systems (z14 SE thru a z14 HMC).

There is going to be an update to the manual/helps coming in a future release.

The Scheduled Operation should be there on your HMC. On your HMC, select the
CPC that contains the LPAR(s) you want to change the weights on. Then run
"Customize Scheduled Operations", which is under the "Operational
Customization" group.
When you have scheduled operations open, sele

It looks like you now have a way around your issue. I will talk to the owner
