A z14 ZR1 will support which of the following processor configurations?
The correct answer is C. 6 CPs + 6 IFLs. Option C is correct because the IBM z14 ZR1 supports a maximum of 12 configurable processors total, with no more than 6 CPs and 6 IFLs - making 6+6 the only configuration that stays within both limits. A (7 CPs + 13 IFLs) is wrong on two counts: 7 CPs exceeds the 6-CP ceiling…

Explanation
Option C is correct because the IBM z14 ZR1 supports a maximum of 12 configurable processors total, with no more than 6 CPs and 6 IFLs - making 6+6 the only configuration that stays within both limits.
- A (7 CPs + 13 IFLs) is wrong on two counts: 7 CPs exceeds the 6-CP ceiling, and 13 IFLs far exceeds the 6-IFL ceiling, totaling 20 processors.
- B (13 CPs + 7 IFLs) is similarly invalid - 13 CPs and 20 total processors both blow past the z14 ZR1's limits.
- D (7 CPs + 6 IFLs) is close but fails because 7 CPs exceeds the maximum of 6 CPs, even though the IFL count is valid.
Memory tip: Think of the z14 ZR1 as the "6-6" machine - it's the compact, rack-mountable mainframe that caps out at 6 of each, for a clean dozen total. Any answer with a 7 or higher in either slot is automatically disqualified.
