On the z10 (2097) and up, you can dynamically make a new CP available to an LPAR via the HMC. Once that is done, the z/OZ CONFIG command can be issued. Be careful to follow through completely with all steps. We added an engine a while back, but it went offline at the next regular IPL, and we didn't notice right away. Sort of embarrassing.

If you've have 4 CP defined in the partition definition, and no "reserve"(?) CPs defined, can you dynamically CF a 5th CP online? -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.
