Specify the number of processors that you want the logical partition to use when you activate the logical partition associated with this partition profile. If the managed system has at least this many uncommitted processors available when you activate this logical partition, then the managed system commits this number of processors to the logical partition. If the managed system does not have this many processors available, but the managed system has at least the minimum number of processors available, the managed system activates the logical partition with the processors it has.
