iCOD Activation Example Session
IMPORTANT V-Class processors can only be activated in pairs.
In the following example session, there are a total of 4 processors in the
iCOD system; 2 processors are activated and 2 are inactive processors. In
this example, 1 additional processor is activated, leaving the iCOD
system with 3 active processors (and 1 inactive processor):
icod_modify -a 1 “app. demand:mjones:Bill Price:bprice@corp.com:(970)111-2222“
3 processors are now active.
NOTE: Verify that HP and 3rd party software licenses are upgraded
to take into account the number of active processors.
NOTE In the above activation example, the processor activation is instant (that
is, not require a reboot). To defer the activation (until the next reboot)
add the -D option to the command. See the manpage icod_modify(1M) for
details.
The icod_modify command allows you to activate processors with the -a
option, or set the total number of active processors with the -s option.
See “Software Application Considerations” on page 65 for details of
software application implications when activating additional processors.
