This and the post it replies to suggests we might be getting muddied in our terminology.
I think the original post was about DEFINING engines, rather than parking them or varying them on and offline.

You don't want more CPs assigned than you (or PR/SM) can use...it's just overhead. In fact, unused CPs will be "parked" on newer CECs when underutilized. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
