Acquiring and Configuring Temporary Instant
Capacity
To add temporary capacity to a system that contains Instant Capacity
processors, follow this procedure:
Step 1. Order the desired amount of temporary capacity for your type of server
by submitting a purchase order to HP. You must specify the system serial
number.
After you purchase an amount of temporary capacity, HP sends you a
letter that contains details on how to acquire a temporary capacity
codeword license and apply it to the system that will utilize temporary
capacity.
Step 2. Acquire the temporary capacity codeword from the Utility Pricing
Solutions portal (http://www.hp.com/go/icod/portal)
Step 3. Apply the temporary capacity codeword using the icod_modify -C
command:

/usr/sbin/icod_modify -C vnyqD.qjieC7e.LaLdQGH.4aCNYBp-BQk3w9n.jfDhpvz.LiEB58C.7Q3dca2
The following valid codeword has been applied to the complex:

Execute the icod_stat(1M) command to see the results of the application of this

NOTE As with all codewords, you must apply codewords in the same sequence
as they are obtained.
