Instant Capacity Terminology

Instant Capacity Terminology

The following terms are commonly used in conjunction with Instant

Capacity:

activated processor

A processor that has been turned on by the Instant Capacity software or during installation. Processors are activated with the icod_modify command (or the vparmodify command in a virtual partition) while HP-UX is running.

add-on system

A system that has been converted to an Instant Capacity system. This process is performed by a HP service representative.

bound processor

For vPars versions before A.04, a processor that can process interrupts for a virtual partition. Bound processors cannot be migrated from one virtual partition to another if either of the partitions is running. Every virtual partition must have at least one bound processor.

codeword

The Instant Capacity component licensing mechanism used with Instant Capacity versions B.07.x software. Prior to activating a component, a right-to-use (RTU) codeword must be applied to an Instant Capacity system. Codewords are obtained from the Utility Pricing Solutions web portal after an unlicensed component has been purchased.

configured processor

A processor that has been configured at the boot console handler (BCH) and is now available for activation.
