DURCHFÜHRUNG EINER ÄNDERUNG AN EINER VIRTUELLEN KONFIGURATIONSTOPOLOGIE

摘要

In a logically partitioned host computer system comprising host processors (host CPUs) partitioned into a plurality of guest processors (guest CPUs) of a guest configuration, a perform topology function instruction is executed by a guest processor specifying a topology change of the guest configuration. The topology change preferably changes the polarization of guest CPUs, the polarization related to the amount of a host CPU resource is provided to a guest CPU.
