HP Instant Capacity Release Notes for Versions 8.x

Usage Rights Requirement
A system managed under the Instant Capacity program may include one or more components
(core, cell, or memory) that are without usage rights. Before you can use these components,
additional usage rights must be obtained. Usage rights can either be purchased from HP, or if
the system is a member of a Global Instant Capacity group, usage rights may be temporarily
borrowed from another member of the group, as described in the GiCAP section of “Changes
in Version 8.00 from Versions 7.x (HP-UX only)” (page 21).
Purchase of usage rights from HP is managed through the use of Right To Use (RTU) codewords.
Contact your HP sales representative in order to purchase component-specific usage rights. After
such a purchase, HP sends you a letter informing you how to retrieve the RTU codeword from
the HP Utility Pricing Solutions web portal, located at: http://www.hp.com/go/icap/portal
After the RTU codeword is retrieved from the Utility Pricing Solutions portal, the RTU codeword
is applied to your server by the use of the icapmodify command, using the -C option. When
the codeword is applied, component-specific usage rights on the system are increased, allowing
you to activate one or more additional components.
