If you are installing a new processor, build an IOCP input data set for your
configuration from a production IODF and transfer the IOCP statements to a
diskette. In the unlikely event that the IOCP input file exceeds the capacity of the
diskette, the IOCP input file can be compressed using a zip-compatible program.
When the new system arrives, give the diskette containing the IOCP input
statements to the install team.
If you are installing a new processor, instead of using a diskette you can remotely
write the IOCDS from an HCD that is running on an installed CPC in the same
HMC cluster. Inform the install team that plans are in place to use the "Build and
manage S/390 microprocessor IOCDSs" option in HCD to write the IOCDS.
CHPID Numbers
The zSeries 800 system provides the capability to change the CHPID numbers
assigned to channels by the order process configurator. The CHPID Assignment
function is accessible only from Service (CE) Mode. If you want to reassign CHPID
numbers when your system is installed, you must create a diskette with the new
assignments to be imported into the CHPID Assignment function.
The CHPID Mapping Tool, available on IBM's Resource Link web site, is used to
create the diskette. You can access Resource Link any time after your order is sent
to manufacturing. Using your input and the machine order (CFReport), the Mapping
Tool creates the diskette, customized for your specific configuration, and also
creates a new CHPID Report.
Remember to use the CHPID report generated by the Mapping Tool (not the report
created by the configurator) to create and/or verify your HCD/IOCP input, and for
documenting your final CHPID assignments.
