HP Instant Capacity User's Guide for Version 9.x

6.2 Ordering Instant Capacity Cell Board
To order the Instant Capacity Cell Board product, do the following:
• Order the appropriate HP product number for the cell board for your specific class of HP
server.
• Order the appropriate HP product number for the entire amount of Instant Capacity memory
on the cell board.
• Order the appropriate HP product numbers and quantities of Instant Capacity processors
for the number of additional cores to activate on the cell board (for details about core usage
rightssee “Instant Capacity Cell Board and Considerations of Core Usage Rights” (page 94)).
NOTE: It is highly recommended that you have the same number of processors or cores and
amount of memory on all cell boards in a given hard partition (nPartition). For optimal
performance, each nPartition should have cell boards with identical numbers of processors or
cores and amounts of memory (otherwise, system performance can be unpredictable).
Rules for ordering memory help ensure that the Instant Capacity cell board matches the amount
of memory in the other cell boards in a given nPartition.
