I remember reconfiguring on the fly with MFT. The partitions had to be adjacent in memory and had to be empty: no running programs in those partitions.

(M = multimple, F = fixed) If your installation required an IPL, then I surmise it either had an alternate nucleus that was smaller, or that the staff weren't trained properly (note earlier post on redefining partitions). We ran MFT at ADR for a couple of years, and I remember redefining partitions, but never had to IPL to do so.
