Applying a Right-To-Use (RTU) Codeword
IMPORTANT Codewords must be applied in the sequence in which they are obtained.
Licensing a
Processor
An inactive processor must be licensed prior to activation. The Instant
Capacity licensing procedure is as follows:
Step 1. Purchase the processor enablement product from HP (contact your HP
sales representative to accomplish this) — HP sends you a letter
containing information on how to obtain a RTU codeword for processor
activation.
Step 2. Acquire a right-to-use (RTU) codeword from the Utility Pricing Solutions
web portal (located at http://www.hp.com/go/icod/portal).
Step 3. Apply the RTU codeword using the icod_modify command with the -C
option. Note that the -C option is in uppercase.
Here is an example session of applying a processor RTU codeword using
icod_modify -C:

activated separately.
