How much memory or CPU will that CoD code activate anyway?

a friendly IBM hardware engineer many years ago. When entering a capacity on demand
(CoD) code into a Power system, you can tell how many processors and how much
memory will be activated, just by looking at the code you’ve given by IBM. For example, the following codes, when
entered for the appropriate Power system, will enable 4 processors (POD) and
64GB of memory (MOD). I can also tell* that once the VET code is entered, this

Managing users with dsh and chpasswd - (plus info on DSM and dping).

in the past . The new dsh command (and other tools) are
provided in the new DSM filesets named dsm.core and dsm.dsh . root@nim# lslpp -L dsm*

Upgrading PowerHA? Don't forget your TSM client!
When you upgrade
PowerHA (formerly HACMP) don’t forget to check/update your TSM client as well! We successfully upgraded from
PowerHA 5.4 to PowerHA 6.1 SP6 first. #
halevel -s 6.1.0
SP6 We found that our
DB2 backups to TSM were no longer working. $ db2adutl query Error: Initialize environment failed with TSM return code 4602 In the TSM error log file we also
saw the following message repeated over and over: # tail -1 dsmerror_db2_ha.log 10/17/11 12:42:57 ANS1478E CLUSTERNODE is set to YES
but the cluster software is not... [More]
