Setting the Total Number of Requested Active Processors with iCOD
This procedure (using the icod_modify -s... command) sets the total
number of requested active processors for an nPar with iCOD.
Performing this procedure can increase or decrease the number of
activated processors in an nPar.
NOTE Activating or deactivating processors can affect your billing for iCOD
services.
On systems with HP processor set (Pset) software installed: newly
activated processors are assigned to the default Pset, and deactivated
processors are removed from the Pset to which they were assigned.
Step 1. Login to the nPar in which you will be activating or deactivating
processors.
You can activate or deactivate processors in only the local nPartition (the
nPar in which you issue the icod_modify command).
Step 2. Issue the icod_modify -s... command and specify the number of
processors to be activated.
You must include the following details after the -s option. This
information is recorded in the nPar’s iCOD change log.
