HP Instant Capacity User's Guide for Versions 8.x

Ordering Instant Capacity Cell Board
To order the Instant Capacity Cell Board product you need to 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 (see “Instant Capacity Cell
Board and Considerations of Core Usage Rights” (page 92) for more details about core usage
rights).
NOTE: It is highly recommended that you have the same number of processors/cores and
amount of memory on all cell boards in a given hard partition (nPartition). For optimum
performance, each nPartition should have cell boards with identical numbers of processors/cores
and amounts of memory (otherwise, the system performance can be unpredictable).
Rules for ordering memory ensure that the Instant Capacity cell board matches the amount of
memory in the other cell boards in a given nPartition.
