Example 9-2 Activating an iCOD Cell Board and increasing the number of
total active processors
In a different scenario, activation of an iCOD cell board can cause the
number of requested active processors to be below the minimum required
(one active processor per cell board) and necessitate the purchase of the
newly activated iCOD processor. For example, if you have a two cell
board nPartition with one active processor on one cell board and three
iCOD processors, and an inactive (iCOD) cell board with four iCOD
processors, activating the iCOD cell board results in one active processor
per cell board. That is, the iCOD software distributes the number of
active processors across the two cell boards. The total number of active
processors has increased by one and payment for the processor
enablement fee is due.
