NOTE: 

NOTE: Global Instant Capacity does not include software licenses and support for all HP software! Permanent perpetual software
licenses for any per-core licensed software not listed in the table above must be licensed for the maximum number of cores that may
be active in the partition at any given time. The maximum number of active cores is defined as the total number of active cores plus
any Instant Capacity cores that may be activated temporarily via usage rights borrowed from another GiCAP Group Member.

While GiCAP allows some software licenses to move with the processor core usage right, not all software licenses are
interchangeable and care must be taken to ensure that GiCAP transfers do not incur software licensing violation.

NOTE: 

NOTE: Two partitions can loan and borrow processor resources to each other if they have equal software configurations.

In the context of GiCAP, two software licenses are considered equal if the two licenses are for the same software product, or if the
two licenses are for two different standalone products contained within the same bundle or suite.

For example:

DC-OE = DC-OE
standalone MirrorDisk/UX = standalone MirrorDisk/UX
standalone MirrorDisk/UX = standalone Process Resource Manager (both are contained in VSE-OE)
standalone vPars = standalone Integrity VM (both are contained in HP VSE Suite)
standalone Serviceguard = standalone Workload Manager (both are contained in DCOE)

NOTE: 

NOTE: 

NOTE: 

NOTE: A partition can loan processor resources to another partition only if the software configuration of the loaning partition is
equal to or greater than the software configuration of the borrowing partition.

In the context of GiCAP, software license "A" is considered greater than

greater than

greater than

greater than software license "B" if software license "A" is a bundle or

standalone product that contains software license "B." Put another way, software license "A" is a superset of software license "B." For
example, Data Center OE is greater than Virtual Server OE, which is in turn, greater than Base OE (see for more details on what
standalone products are contained in specific bundles and suites). HP-UX 11i v3 old operating environments (MCOE, EOE and
FOE) and new operating environments (DC-OE, HA-OE, VSE-OE and BOE) can co-exist in the same GiCAP group. The following
illustrates the relationship between HP-UX 11i v3 new and old operating environments for the purpose of GiCAP LTU sharing.

For example:

DCOE > VSE-OE
MCOE > BOE
HA-OE > FOE
EOE > standalone PRM
EOE > FOE + standalone MirrorDisk/UX + standalone PRM
MCOE > FOE + standalone MirrorDisk/UX + standalone PRM + standalone WLM
HP VSE Suite > standalone vPars + standalone Capacity Advisor
EOE + Standalone WLM > FOE + standalone WLM

In general, a partition can lend processor resources to another partition only if the software configuration of the loaning partition is
equal to or greater than the software configuration of the borrowing partition. It is the responsibility of the Customer to ensure that
they remain in compliance with their software licensing agreements when using GiCAP to move processor resources between
partitions.

Note as well that when loaning processor resources to another GiCAP Group Member, a license must be loaned for every software
