You can dynamically add cryptographic features. You must have feature
3863 installed on your system.
The cryptographic feature number must be in the Candidates list
of the LPAR Activation panel.
Configure On the card. Each feature
will display. For coprocessors, once the master keys are entered,
they become active. The accelerator will automatically become active.
Note: ALL
crypto coprocessors cards must be loaded with the same level of code.
Otherwise, unpredictable results can occur. When updating licensed
internal code (LIC) on the coprocessors:
- You can migrate to new LIC levels on the coprocessors one at a
time without taking an outage, and
- you need to complete the LIC upgrade on all coprocessors before
trying to exploit a new function introduced by the new LIC.
