Permanent Capacity Pricing

IBM eServer iSeries

Permanent capacity pricing

It's very simple ... whether you purchase a POD Activation Feature to permanently activate a processor when the server is initially purchased or sometime later ... you pay the then current list price for the POD Activation Feature.

There are no pricing penalties or benefits either way.

Trial Capacity is not offered on new models

Pre-2003 hardware continues to offer trial capacity, a means of "trying" on demand capacity before permanently activating it. Trial capacity, allows you to temporarily activate 100% of your standby processors for a period of 14 elapsed days.

In 2003, the new models (i825, i870, and the new processors of the i890), will not have trial capacity. It has been replaced with Bonus Days (14 Processor Days of credit) that is available when/if a customer enables their machine for temporary capacity ... On/Off CoD.
