Health check for zIIP processors on KSYS

It is recommended that reserved zIIP are available in a KSYS and it would be very helpful to have a new Health Check raising a warning if a KSYS LPAR has available zIIP but they are not reserved.
This Health Check should be customizable for different installations.

    After giving the request a comprehensive review, we have determined that we cannot include it as a candidate in an upcoming release because it won't be pursued within our planning cycle.

    We love HC's. IMHO, GDPS might have HC's for everything that is written in bold in the ICG.

    Our K-sys use ziip, but it would be good to have a healthcheck regrading ziip (reserved) or better still if the healthcheck identifies that the K-sys is using GP's because there are no ziips defined.

    I'm not sure I understand the RFE.

    If a K-sys LPAR has available ziip, then this is better then only reserved ziips.

    We are planning to have a permanent ziip assigned to K-systems.

    So if you make a health-check, please make it enough flexible.
