iCOD Terminology
Appendix C 141
right to access
The initial fee a customer pays to enter the iCOD
program and physically acquire possession of an iCOD
(inactive) processor.
temporary capacity
An HP product that enables customers to purchase
prepaid processor activation rights, for a specified
(temporary) period of time. Temporary capacity is sold
in 30 processor-day increments. Temporary capacity is
available on HP-UX 11i v1 only.
unbound processor
Unbound processors do not have I/O interrupts
assigned to them and can dynamically migrate from
one vPar to another.
virtual partition
A software partitioning of a computer or hard partition
where each virtual partition contains an instance of an
operating system. Though a hard partition can contain
multiple virtual partitions, the inverse is not true (that
is, a virtual partition cannot span hard partition
boundaries). Virtual partitions are also referred to as
“vPars”.
