Error description

  • This APAR delivers support for the IBM z Systems z13 (z13)
    processor family (D/T2964) and the IBM z Systems z13s (z13s)
    processor family (D/T2965) for the z/VSE Query Virtual Server
    (QVS) API.
    
    Beginning with IBM z Systems zEC12 and zBC12, absolute capping
    support was provided for an individual LPAR. IBM z Systems z13
    and z13s provide absolute capping for an LPAR group.
    The Absolute Capping allows you to change the absolute capping
    of logical partitions in a group that share processors.
    
    The APAR provides support for the group physical capacity limit
    enforcement of logical partitions (LPARs) as an absolute
    (versus relative) limit in units of CPs, that is provided by
    Processor Resource/Systems Manager (PR/SM).
    
    The capacity limits returned by QVS take the LPAR group capping
    into account.
