Tim,

Check the web page below for your particular processor feature code in
the 820 series.  Under V5R1, the older 820 processors will not support
'Linux shared processor', the new ones will.  I believe (but am not
totally certain) that this involves both the processor and the operating
system, thus V5R2 will probably provide similar results with similar
processors.
