Use the ACTIVATE DEFINEDCAPACITY command to manually increase the Defined
Capacity for an LPAR. You can identify the LPAR either by the name
of the LPAR and the name of the CPC on which the LPAR is active, or
by the name of the z/OS system and sysplex running in the LPAR. In
the second case, the z/OS system needs to be defined in the active
domain configuration. In every case the respective CPC has to be defined
in the active domain configuration.
Note:
The number that is supplied as the MSU parameter is
the total limit to which the Defined Capacity should be increased,
not the number of MSU by which you want to increase the limit.
Before performing the activation,
the Provisioning Manager checks for the following conditions:
that the specified LPAR is uniquely identified
that at the HMC Defined Capacity is turned on for the LPAR
that the target limit is an increase, meaning that the new Defined
Capacity is higher than the current Defined Capacity.
The name of the sysplex to
which the specified system belongs.
SYS=name
The name of the system for
which LPAR you want to increase Defined Capacity. The specified system
must be currently observed.
CPC=name
The name of the CPC on which
to find the specified LPAR.
LPAR=name
The name of an LPAR for
which you want to increase the Defined Capacity.
MSU=limit
The new Defined Capacity for the specified LPAR. The limit is
specified in MSU. The new value must be higher than the current Defined
Capacity and Defined Capacity must be turned on for the LPAR at the
HMC. A maximum value of 100000 MSU can be specified.
Example
To increase the Defined Capacity
for system SYS1 in sysplex PLEX 2 to 1000 MSU, issue the following
command:
