How to check the PVU´s on AIX TSM servers?

Hi again,

there is a Processor Value Unit calculator from IBM:
https://www-112.ibm.com/software/howtobuy/passportadvantage/valueunitcalculator/vucalc.wss
and there is also a table (which is a bit hard to read, however):
https://www-01.ibm.com/software/passportadvantage/pvu_licensing_for_customers.html

In either case, you must have processor type/vendor/model and number of cores at hand.

Further, you'll have to take into account if the nodes are virtual or real machines.
Here is a (not so bad) document from IBM about "Software Licensing in a Virtualized Environment":
http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/passportadvantage/PVU_Customer/IBM_Distributed_Licensing_PVU_and_Subcap_Overview_for_Customers.pdf

In my environment I (mis)use the node's "Contact" entry to store the number of PVUs relevant for that node, so I can easily run a query to show the PVUS:

UPD NODE 'node_name' CONTACT="400"

select CONTACT from NODES

Wool,
            good morning. Sadly my tsm is a 5.5 so i´ll do all the math manually. It sucks , but that the way it is. Thanks for your help.

Cheers.

Santiago.
