6.8.5.3 Processor Pool Level Analysis
From a CPC high-level perspective, each pool of processors
must be tracked separately, as they represent distinct types
of resources. The method differs, depending on the type of
machine present in your configuration: on zSeries servers,
all the specialized processors (ICF, IFL, zAAP) are grouped
together in a special purpose processors' pool, under the
generic name of ICF, that is seen and managed by PR/SM
separately from the standard CP processors' pool. On System
z9 and later models, processors defined as ICF, IFL, zAAP, or
zIIP are managed separately as four distinct pools.
1 - zSeries Processors' Pools
2 - System z9 Processors' Pools
