Instant Capacity and Re-Initializing the nPartition (Genesis Partitions)

Any use of the CC command at the service processor level has the potential to overwrite all Instant Capacity configuration, including information about any temporary capacity balance, and is therefore not recommended on Instant Capacity systems. In particular, creating a Genesis Partition on an Instant Capacity system is not recommended because it causes the system to be out of compliance.

If you clear the configuration of a system with unlicensed Instant Capacity components, you must acquire and apply a repair codeword to remain in compliance with your contract. Since the codeword can only be generated using a recent audit snapshot of the system, this means that you should generate an audit snapshot with icod_stat -s before doing the reset or, if asset reporting is configured, ensure that a recent asset report has been sent to the portal.
