HP On Demand Solutions Program

PPU

In previous versions of PPU (versions B.04.x — HP product T1322AA) a

 

customer’s usage charges were calculated based on the number of active

 

processors in the system.

 

PPU versions B.06.x (HP product T2351AA) offers an alternative pricing

 

model in which you are charged for the percent utilization of the active

 

processors.

 

The billing amounts vary as your processor usage needs increase or

 

decrease. This is different than the traditional financing approaches that

 

are based on fixed payment amounts for a specified period.

 

The PPU product T2351AA is available for specified HP enterprise

 

servers on HP-UX 11i v1 and 11i v2.

 

 

NOTE

Customers who are on the Percent CPU Utilization metric should use the

 

most recent version of the PPU B.06.x software (HP product T2351AA).

 

 

iCOD

iCOD is a purchase model in which you license components with

 

codewords.

 

iCOD is available for specified HP enterprise servers on HP-UX 11i v1

 

and 11i v2.
