If you are installing a new processor, build an IOCP input data set for yourconfiguration from a production IODF and transfer the IOCP statements to adiskette. In the unlikely event that the IOCP input file exceeds the capacity of thediskette, the IOCP input file can be compressed using a zip-compatible program.When the new system arrives, give the diskette containing the IOCP inputstatements to the install team.If you are installing a new processor, instead of using a diskette you can remotelywrite the IOCDS from an HCD that is running on an installed CPC in the sameHMC cluster. Inform the install team that plans are in place to use the ″Build andmanage S/390 microprocessor IOCDSs″ option in HCD to write the IOCDS.CHPID NumbersThe zSeries 800 system provides the capability to change the CHPID numbersassigned to channels by the order process configurator. The CHPID Assignmentfunction is accessible only from Service (CE) Mode. If you want to reassign CHPIDnumbers when your system is installed, you must create a diskette with the newassignments to be imported into the CHPID Assignment function.The CHPID Mapping Tool, available on IBM’s Resource Link web site, is used tocreate the diskette. You can access Resource Link any time after your order is sentto manufacturing. Using your input and the machine order (CFReport), the MappingTool creates the diskette, customized for your specific configuration, and alsocreates a new CHPID Report.Remember to use the CHPID report generated by the Mapping Tool (not the reportcreated by the configurator) to create and/or verify your HCD/IOCP input, and fordocumenting your final CHPID assignments.Level 04a, June 21, 20046-22 zSeries 800: Installation Manual for Physical Planning
