Tools for Managing iCOD Processors
The HP Instant Capacity on Demand (iCOD) product includes the
following commands for managing iCOD settings and processor
configurations. This same set of commands is used for both the
iCOD Purchase and iCOD Utility products.
For details on these commands refer to the icod_modify (1M), icod_notify
(1M), and icod_stat (1M) manpages.
• /usr/sbin/icod_modify
The icod_modify command allows you to activate and deactivate
iCOD processors. This command also lets you change system contact
information and apply a software license to use iCOD.
The -a option activates processors and -d deactivates processors.
• /usr/sbin/icod_notify
The icod_notify command allows you to request that an iCOD asset
report be delivered by e-mail, and allows you to turn on or off e-mail
notification of iCOD configuration changes.
The -n option turns on or off automatic change notification e-mail.
• /usr/sbin/icod_stat
The icod_stat command displays iCOD status and configuration
information as well as iCOD processor usage details.
The -p option gives complex-wide iCOD Purchase details on nPar
systems. The -u option displays the iCOD change record, listing the
changes from oldest to newest.
When using the iCOD commands to activate and deactivate processors or
update contact and notification details, you affect the iCOD configuration
and settings for the local nPartition only. While some iCOD settings are
stored in complex profile data, many iCOD settings are stored on disk in
the iCOD configuration file (/etc/.iCOD_data). As a result, you may need
to check and adjust iCOD configuration settings when booting from
different disks.
When you license iCOD (by using the icod_modify -l... command)
you can do so from any nPartition in the server complex. This licenses
