z/VM dynamic I/O configuration

You can dynamically change the current I/O configuration of the CPC. You can also change the current I/O configuration of the operating system and create an IOCDS and make it the active IOCDS.

Dynamic I/O configuration does not support:

• Changing MIF image ID numbers (the MIF image ID number is different from the LP identifier (ID)).

You can define and control the configuration of the CPC affecting all LPs. Those LPs that run z/VM® can dynamically change their software configuration definitions.
