returned to the default setting by specifying an empty
string (""). The system identifier is a string that you
specify to help track your own systems.
-r Reconcile. Activate or deactivate processors (subject to
compliance limits) to bring the system to a state where
the intended number of processors are active.
-w
<warning days> Set temporary capacity warning period to number
of days. If not specified, the default warning period is
15 days. The iCOD software calculates when the
temporary capacity will expire based on the current
consumption rate. When the temporary capacity
balance is projected to be depleted within the warning
period, a warning message is sent by e-mail to the
system-contact if specified, and root. Note that if
temporary capacity is depleted and you continue to
have more active processors than licensed processors
across the complex, on the next reboot of any partition
in the complex the software will automatically
deactivate one or more unlicensed processors in order
to bring the system into a state closer to licensing
compliance. The Instant Capacity software will
deactivate as many processors as is necessary to either
stop consumption of temporary capacity or to bring the
partition to the minimum number of required active
processors.
-s
<n> Sets the number of active processors to n , as long as the
end result does not take the complex out of compliance.
Depending on the value of
n , this option works exactly
as the -a option (if
n is greater than the current
number of active processors), or exactly as the -d
option (if
n is less than the current number of active
processors).
-t Authorize use of temporary capacity. This option, in
combination with either the -a or the -s option,
specifies that a processor activation is allowed to
consume temporary capacity. Temporary capacity is
used when the number of active processors exceeds the
number of licensed processors and is no longer used
when the number of active processors is decreased to
the number of licensed processors. Use icod_modify
