AME activation key identification
In a previous post I discussed how you can identify some of the different types of a PowerVM Capacity
on Demand (CoD) activation keys from IBM. Recently I had to Activate Memory Expansion (AME) on a
couple of POWER7 systems. I discovered that all of the keys contained a similar
string. It appears that if a CoD key contains the string CA1F0000000800 then it is safe to assume it will activate
AME for a particular system. e.g. 9741EF3AE6969F17 CA1F0000000800 419D 937A1240F00F5B05 CA1F0000000800 413D And while I’m talking about AME,... [More]

Is my POWER7 system AME capable? Is AME supported with SAP in production?
A colleague of mine contacted me during the week to ask how one could
determine if a POWER7 system was capable of Active Memory Expansion. I thought
I'd share my response with everyone who follows my blog. You can check if the system is capable of providing Active Memory
Expansion (AME), from the HMC command line using the lssyscfg command, as shown here: hscroot@hmc1:~>
lssyscfg -r sys -m Server-8233-E8B-SN1000 -F active_mem_expansion_capable 1 Alternatively you can view the capabilities of
the managed system from the HMC GUI,... [More]
