HP Instant Capacity Version 10.x User Guide (762794-001, March 2014)
Applying a Right To Use (RTU) codeword
Unless you have a balance of IAC or temporary capacity (or usage rights available from a GiCAP
group), you must purchase additional usage rights before the activation of an inactive core. To
purchase additional usage rights:
1. Contact your HP sales representative to purchase the appropriate iCAP RTU products.
2. Acquire an RTU codeword from the Utility Pricing Solutions web portal at:
http://www.hp.com/go/icap/portal
3. Apply the RTU codeword using the icapmodify -C command. Note that the -C option is
in uppercase.
The following example shows how to apply a core RTU codeword using the icapmodify -C
command.

The following codeword has been applied to the complex: Usage rights
codeword for the complex with serial number xxxxxxxxxx. The codeword
sequence number is 1311855810. The codeword adjusts core usage rights
by 1. Use icapstatus(1M) to see the effect of this codeword.
HP-UX licensing and support with rights to use codeword
RTUs can be purchased per socket. In addition, HP-UX and support licenses must be purchased
per socket. Although rights are purchased at the socket level, rights management (core activation/
deactivation) is done at the individual core level only.
iCAP commands
All the iCAP commands can be executed from both Operating system and OA command line
interface.
Checking status
You can use the icapstatus command to view the status of your iCAP system. The icapstatus
command, issued without options, provides the following information:
