2.3.3 Capacity on Demand (COD)

The COD feature allows you to configure spareprocessing resources on your

M4000/M5000 server in the form of one or more COD CPUs which can be activated

at a later date when additional processing power is needed. Toaccess each COD

CPU, you must purchase a COD hardware activation permit. Under certain

conditions, you can use COD resources before purchasingCOD permits for them.

For more information, refer to the SPARCEnterprise M4000/M5000/M8000/M9000

Servers Capacity on Demand (COD) User’s Guide.

2.3.4 Zones

Oracle Solaris OS has a function called zones, which divides the processingresources

and allocates them to applications. Zones provide flexible resourceallocation, which

enables optimal resource management with consideration given to the processing

load.

In a domain, resourcescan be divided into sections called containers. The processing

sections are allocated to each application. The processing resources aremanaged

independently in each container.If a problem occurs in a container, the container can

be isolated so it does not affect other containers.
