Cell Board Instant Capacity

HP-UX License and Support

HP-UX License and Support

You do not initially pay for HP-UX license and support fees on an Instant Capacity cell board.

When you license a cell board, you must additionally pay for the incremental HP-UX license and support costs for each processor that is activated. That is, the HP-UX license and support costs are based on a “per active processor” basis and not included in the licensing of the cell board.

If activation of an Instant Capacity cell board does not increase the number of active processors, then you do not have to pay any incremental HP-UX license and support fees.

Your system must be properly licensed for the HP-UX Operating Environment (OE) when activating the Instant Capacity cell board. Software licenses for third party software may also be needed. Check with your application software vendor for licensing requirements.
