Summary:PURPOSE: A method, system, and storing medium for making and identifying associating system image groups is provided to generate and identify different kinds of cooperating system images in a single machine, single central processor complex(CPC). CONSTITUTION: A CHPID(Channel Path ID) entry of a CHPID name index record is checked for retrieving an LPC(Logical Partition Cluster) name corresponding to an active LPC name record(503). If the LPC name exists, the LPC name is compared with an LPC name located in a target IOCDS(Input Output Configuration Dataset) for a corresponding CHPID(507). If the names are matched, a process is continuously to a next CHPID(504,502). If the names are not matched, an active forming command is ended as an error(508). 본 발명은 각 종류의 그룹이 상이한 동작 목적을 가지는 단일 머신 단일 중앙 처리기 복합체(a single machine, single central processor complex:CPC)내에 상이한 종류의 협동 시스템 이미지(cooperating system images) 그룹을 생성 및 식별하는 방법을 개시한다. 그러한 협동 시스템 이미지의 집합은 논리 파티션 클러스터(a logical patition cluster:LPC)로서 지칭된다. LPC는 진단 인스트럭션(a diagnose instruction)을 사용하여 생성되거나 또는 식별된다. 진단 인스트럭션은 수행될 함수를 지시하는 서브코드 필드 및 상기 함수가 수행되어 질 논리 파티션 클러스터를 지시하는 논리 파티션 클러스터 타입 필드를 포함한다.
