Chapter 6. Cryptography 221
Cryptographic Candidate list Identifies the cryptographic coprocessor numbers that are
eligible to be accessed by this logical partition. From the
list, select the coprocessor numbers, in the range 0 - 15,
that identify the PCI-X adapters to be accessed by this
partition.
Cryptographic Online list Identifies the cryptographic coprocessor numbers that are
automatically brought online during logical partition
activation. The numbers that are selected in the online list
must also be part of the candidate list.
After they are activated, the active partition cryptographic definitions can be viewed from the
SE. Select the CPCs, and click View LPAR Cryptographic Controls in the CPC Operational
Customization window. The resulting window displays the definition of Usage and Control
domain indexes, and PCI Cryptographic candidate and online lists, as shown in Figure 6-7.
The information is provided only for active logical partitions.

Operational changes can be made by using the Change LPAR Cryptographic Controls task
from the SE, which reflects the cryptographic definitions in the image profile for the partition.
With this function, the cryptographic feature can be added and removed dynamically, without
stopping a running operating system.

corresponding chapter in IBM z13 Configuration Setup, SG24-8260.
