Removing iCOD Software and Functionality from nPars
This procedure describes how to remove iCOD software and functionality
from an nPar server complex after completing your iCOD purchasing
and contract obligations.
For more details see the Instant Capacity on Demand (iCOD) and Pay
Per Use (PPU) User’s Guide.
Step 1. Confirm that all processors in all nPartitions in the server complex are
activated and purchased.
All processors in the complex are activated when: for every nPar the
“requested active processors” equals the “total processors”. You can check
this by issuing the icod_stat command in each nPar.
If you have a server complex that is under an iCOD Purchase contract,
you also must have paid the enablement fee for all processors. Confirm
this with your HP sales or service representative.
If your server complex is under an iCOD Utility (pay per use) contract,
you must check with your HP sales or service representative to
determine if you have met all contract requirements.
Step 2. After confirming with HP that you have completed all requirements, use
the swremove command to uninstall the iCOD Purchase or iCOD Utility
bundle.
You must remove the bundle from every nPar that no longer is under
contract. In the case of iCOD Utility contracts this involves removing the
bundles from all nPars.
On nPars where iCOD software is installed on multiple boot devices
(such as PRI, HAA, and ALT) you should remove the bundle from all
devices.
See the iCOD User’s Guide and the swlist (1M) and swremove (1M)
manpages for details.
