15CPU Reassignment at the DCL CLI  



OpenVMS supports several methods of managing CPU resources. The console establishes the default owner instance for each CPU using the console environment variables. This allows the CPU resources to be statically assigned, providing a precise initial configuration. In the event of a cold boot (that is, power cycle or initialization), this default configuration is restored from console nonvolatile RAM.

Once a configuration has been booted, OpenVMS provides more elegant means of assigning resources for users with the CMKRNL (Change Mode to Kernel) privilege. The following sections describe these methods.
