HP System Partitions Guide: Administration for nPartitions, rev 5.1 399
9 Processor Instant Capacity
on Demand (iCOD)
This chapter covers using Hewlett-Packard’s processor iCOD (Instant
Capacity on Demand) product on nPartitions.
iCOD is an optional software product that enables you to instantly
increase or adjust processing power within nPartitions. As you need
more or fewer processors, you use iCOD tools to adjust the number of
activated processors in the nPartition.
Two varieties of iCOD software and contracts are available from HP:
iCOD Purchase and iCOD Utility (pay per use). Both are described in
this chapter.
NOTE Using both Processor Sets (Psets) and iCOD simultaneously is supported
for iCOD Purchase Version 5.0 and higher only.
NOTE For HP Superdome nPartitions running the HP Virtual Partitions
software, only iCOD Purchase Version 5.0 and higher is supported.
