Example 7-2 Content of Exception Report for More Cells Active than Expected

More cells active than expected

'More cells active than expected' means that one or more unlicensed iCOD cells have been detected to be in use. To find out how many inactive cells are expected on the system, run icod_stat and look at the expected number of iCOD cells. This exception may be corrected by using parmodify to set the use_on_next_boot flag for an assigned cell to "n", followed by a partition reboot. Alternately, cells may be turned off after a partition reboot, unassigned from partitions, or purchased for permanent activation.

Example 7-3 Content of Exception Report for More Memory Active than Expected

More memory active than expected

'More memory active than expected' means that unlicensed iCOD memory has been detected to be in use in the system. To find out how much inactive memory is expected on the system, run icod_stat and look at the expected amount of iCOD memory. Typically, this exception occurs when an iCOD cell is activated, but it may also occur when a cell with a small amount of memory is deactivated and replaced with an iCOD cell with a greater amount of memory. To correct this exception, one or more cells will have to be deactivated in order to deactivate the appropriate amount of memory. This can be done by using parmodify to set the use_on_next_boot flag for an assigned cell to "n", followed by a partition reboot. Alternately, cells may be turned off after a partition reboot, unassigned from partitions, or the appropriate amount of

iCOD memory may be purchased for permanent activation.

Example 7-4 Content of Exception Report for Negative Temporary Capacity Balance

Negative temporary capacity balance

'Negative temporary capacity balance' means that the temporary capacity (TiCOD) balance on the system is negative. To correct this exception, first correct any 'More processors active than expected' exception so that the temporary capacity balance does not continue to grow more negative. Then, purchase additional temporary capacity and apply the temporary capacity codeword to the system. Alternately, the processors consuming temporary

capacity can be purchased and the Right-to-Use licenses applied to the system.
