Instant Capacity on Demand (iCOD) User's Guide for versions B.05.x

Special Considerations
iCOD and pstat, pstat_getdynamic, and mpctl System Calls
Appendix B 129
Note that even though these average fields are adjusted, no information
is lost because psd_mp_avg_*_min and psd_mp_cpu_time[] still contain
deactivated processor values.
mpctl
MPC_GETNUMSPUS now returns the number of activated processors.
Earlier versions of this command reported activated and deactivated
processors in this field.
MPC_GETFIRSTSPU now returns the first activated processor.
MPC_GETNEXTSPU now returns the next activated processor and skips
deactivated ones.
MPC_GETNUMSPUS, MPC_GETFIRSTSPU and MPC_GETNEXTSPU now take
into account deactivated processors. MPC_GETNUMSPUS does not count
deactivated processors and the other two options do not return
deactivated processors’ indices.
Affected HP-UX Commands
pstat() and mpctl() required changes to the following HP-UX
commands in order to work properly on HP-UX systems:
• top
• sar
• vmstat
• iostat
• uptime
Patches for these commands are required before installing iCOD B.05.x
on HP-UX 11.0. No commands patches are required on HP-UX 11i v1.
