WBEM version A.02.05 or higher must be installed on the Group Manager and on all member systems in order to use Global Instant Capacity. The CIM Server configuration property sslClientVerificationMode must be set to a value of “optional” on all GiCAP Group Managers and on all OS instances of all member systems. (The CIM Server may need to be restarted if the property was not previously set to this value.) For details, see cimconfig(1M). Note that communication between the managers and members of groups is established using SSL certificates that are supplied by the GiCAP software.

Compliance

In general, a complex is in a compliant state when the number of active components of a given type does not exceed the number of usage rights associated with the type of component. The one exception is that the number of active cores is allowed to exceed the number of core usage rights as long as there is a sufficient positive balance of temporary capacity. A negative balance always indicates a system which is out of compliance.

A GiCAP group is in a compliant state as long as all the members are in a compliant state, all the members of the group continue to have compatible hardware as determined by the hardware grouping rules, and the number of sharing rights installed on the GiCAP manager is equal or greater than the total number of cores without usage rights on complexes managed by the Group Manager.
