6.12 Assigning CPU Core Resources
After registering a CPU Activation key with a system, set the number of CPU Activations in a physical partition to assign CPU resources.
  1. Execute the setcod command interactively to set the number of CPU Activations in a physical partition and assign CPU resources.
    Specify a PPAR-ID for ppar_id.
XSCF> setcod -p ppar_id -s cpu
  1. The following example interactively assigns four CPU core resources to the physical partition.
XSCF> setcod -p 0 -s cpu
PROC Permits installed: 4 cores
PROC Permits assigned for PPAR 0 (4 MAX) [Permanent 0cores]
Permanent [0]:4
PROC Permits assigned for PPAR will be changed.
PROC Permits assigned for PPAR 0 : 0 -> 4
Continue? [y|n] : y
Completed.
XSCF>
  1. Execute the showcod command, and confirm the number of assigned CPU Activations.
    The following example assigns four CPU core resources to physical partition 0.
XSCF> showcod -v -s cpu
PROC Permits installed : 4 cores
PROC Permits assigned for PPAR 0: 4 [Permanent 4cores]
XSCF>
