Setting Up a Sub-Capacity SAS License
Overview On newer mainframe systems, customers can subdivide the CPU capacity that they want to allow for SAS software by using Logical PARtitions (LPAR). To accommodate this model, SAS Institute offers sub-capacity pricing for qualified customers who are upgrading their SAS software or are adding SAS workload to a large IBM mainframe (z/OS). Sub-capacity pricing is based on the capacity of a partition, that is, a subset of the full box. In order for SAS to generate a correct SETINIT for sub-capacity pricing, qualified customers need to submit system-specific information, which is described in this paper. In addition, this paper tells how to find that information and how to change (if necessary) the capacity definition for logical partitions by using the Hardware Management Console (HMC).
