The CBU specify feature 0444 is available only as part of a new server purchase.
Certain system prerequisites must be met and system registration and approval are
required before the CBU specify feature can be applied on a new server. Standard
IBM i terms and conditions do not allow either IBM i processor license entitlements
or 5250 enterprise enablement entitlements to be transferred permanently or
temporarily. These entitlements remain with the machine they were ordered for.
When you register the association between your primary and on-order CBU system,
you must agree to certain terms and conditions regarding the temporary transfer.
The servers with P20 or higher software tiers do not have user entitlements that can
be transferred, and only processor license entitlements can be transferred.
