Using Instant Capacity to Manage Processing Capacity
Setting System-Contact Information
Setting System-Contact Information
It is recommended that you specify a system-contact’s e-mail address on each partition in your system.
If specified, the system-contact receives the following types of Instant Capacity e-mail:
•Processor change notification
•Compliance exception notification
•Temporary capacity expiration notification
•Temporary capacity enforcement notification
•Virtual partition boot time compliance notification
Instant Capacity e-mail messages are sent to the system-contact e-mail address, if specified, and the root account on the partition. Most notifications are also written to the system log.
To specify the Instant Capacity system-contact’s e-mail address, use the icod_modify command with the -coption. Note that you must specify a valid internet e-mail address.
Here is an example session of icod_modify -c:
Setting the System-Contact’s E-mail Address
/usr/sbin/icod_modify -c mjones@corp.com
The contact e-mail address has been set to mjones@corp.com.
The e-mail address specified for the system-contact can be an e-mail alias if you desire multiple recipients to receive Instant Capacity e-mail messages.
