Re: Unrestrict processor

Yes you can purchase an MES from IBM to run this guy up to 2400 CPW. With this machine there is actually a small chip installed in the machine to release the remaining 1400 cpw for your use. Your bidniss partner should be readily able to reveal to you of the relative quantity of currency required to obtain the aforementioned hardware bits.
FYI on Power5+ machines there is no hardware involved in the upgrade, only special software keys as long as your arm!

I am told that the 1000CPW 520's are actually 3000-odd CPW machines that are throttled back by the iSeries Hypervisor. Is this true? If so, can this be unlocked on my 520: 

9406-520 – Feature Code 7459
Processor #8952 - POWER5 1.5 GHz Uni processor – 1000CPW
Server feature #0902
Edition Feature #7459 Enterprise
