NAME

iCOD – instant Capacity on Demand software for HP-UX

DESCRIPTION

iCOD provides services for instantly increasing or decreasing processing capacity (CPUs, cells, and memory) on supported HP servers to meet varying system demands. When the processing demand significantly changes, you can execute the icod_modify command (see icod_modify (1M)) to instantly activate or deactivate processors, or defer an activation or deactivation until the next reboot. The icod_modify command can also be used to apply codewords and make iCOD components available for activation. For detailed information about iCOD, see the iCOD User’s Guide located at /usr/share/doc/icodUserGuide.pdf.

Initializing an iCOD Server

iCOD is installed by HP manufacturing on instantly ignited systems or can be installed by an HP support representative on existing supported servers as an add-on. iCOD attempts to connect to HP via e-mail for purposes of asset reporting. Note that asset reporting is not required, although it can be helpful if you wish to view asset information at the HP iCOD portal.

To initialize an iCOD server:

1)Execute the icod_modify -ccommand to configure contact information (e-mail address).

2)Execute the icod_stat (see icod_stat (1M)) command to check the current status of the iCOD processors and verify that the contact information is set properly.
