Re: V5R4M0 upgrade - HMC as well?

[Larry Bolhuis <lbolhuis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The change is made through ASMI under system configuration. Select HMC 
Managed instead of Operating system. If you make that change then it 
doesn't matter if any partition is designated as a 'Service Partition' 
as that setting will be ignored.
