  • 1.  Moving processors between shared processor pools

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hello. I'm going to move processors from one shared processor pool to another. I have a question. Do I first remove them from the source shared processor pool and then add them to the target? Can I do this dynamically? What happens to the processors that are not assigned to any shared processor pool? The answers may be obvious, but I'd rather be sure because I have active partitions. Regards.

    Hello,

    First of all, you have to remove processors from de original shared processor pool, but be sure you ca do that. If you have these processors assigned to LPARS, you can't remove it and you receive a this message

    IF this happens, you have to change your LPAR config to choose other Shared Processor Pool. (se image below)

    About processors in DefaultPool, you can use it, but , of course, you have to choose in each LPAR which Pool you want and also you have to control your licenses.

    Process is easy and safe. Executed hundreds of times (if no thousands). No risk
