Instant Capacity Processors do not include usage rights and therefore not used by the operating system. In the event that an active
processor fails, an Instant Capacity processor will be activated to replace the failed processor immediately at no cost to the
Customer. Depending on the nature of the failure, this may or may not require a reboot of the partition.

To permanently activate a processor core, the usage right for that core must be purchased and the Codeword downloaded from the
Utility Pricing Solutions Portal and applied to the server.

NOTE: 

NOTE: 

NOTE: 

NOTE: When activating a processor core, licenses for all per-core licensed software installed in the partition must also be
purchased, as well as the associated hardware and software support.

NOTE:

NOTE:

NOTE:

NOTE: While ordering add-on iCAP processors it is mandatory to order the iCAP startup and installation service (HA114A1 option
551).

Instant Capacity processors can also be activated temporarily using Temporary Instant Capacity, described later.

Instant Access Capacity (IAC)
In this Chapter, the term "temporary capacity" will be used to refer to the common functionality of both Temporary Instant Capacity
and Instant Access Capacity.

Since there is no communication between the Customer's system and HP, a purchase order for a Right to Use must be processed
before a Codeword is made available on the Portal. In order to ensure Customers have instant access to their resources when
needed, every Instant Capacity processor core purchased after July 1, 2005 can be temporarily activated for up to five (5) processor
core days.

This included temporary capacity is called "Instant Access Capacity" or "IAC", and is functionally identical to Temporary Instant
Capacity (described later). Instant Access Capacity is included with Instant Capacity processors ordered with new servers as well as
Instant Capacity processor add-ons. Any Customer running Instant Capacity Software version 6.x or later can take advantage of
Instant Access Capacity, which can be used for the following purposes:

Use an Instant Capacity processor core immediately while processing an order for processor core usage rights or Temporary
Instant Capacity (TiCAP)
Handle short term peaks in demand
Evaluate Instant Capacity software performance
Test and/or evaluate Instant Capacity and/or Temporary Instant Capacity functionality
Test how applications respond to processors being activated and deactivated online
Test interoperability of Instant Capacity with the HP Virtual Server Environment

When an order for a complex containing Instant Capacity processors is processed, a Codeword for the applicable amount of Instant
Access Capacity will be made available on the Utility Pricing Solutions Portal. Upon taking delivery of the hardware, the Customer
can log on to the Portal to retrieve the Codeword and apply it to the complex.

Once Instant Access Capacity has been consumed, the Customer will no longer have the ability to temporarily activate the Instant
Capacity processor core. HP recommends that Customers maintain some amount of Temporary Instant Capacity on Instant Capacity
systems as a best practice to ensure immediate access to extra processing resources when needed.
