Unless something changed from 5.1 to 5.2, TSM does NOT report on cpus
on any kind.  It counts nodes.  For your new licensing scheme cpu count,
you have to count them yourself with some process external to TSM.
There is a total disconnect between the cpu licensing on which your tsm
bill is based and node licensing that has to be set on the TSM server to
keep it from complaining that you are out of compliance.
